Well, it's true that the gravitational force acting on the box acts in the direction
opposite to the direction of your lifting force, but there's nothing malicious or
contrary about it. In fact, the gravitational force was there before you came on
the scene, and as you lined up your lift, it was you who decided to oppose it.
False, provided the drop occurs no sooner than the throw, and the ground is flat .
False

False
this is false. the horizontal speed of the object has absolutely nothing to do with how long it takes to fall. if you fire a bullet on level ground it will hit the ground at the same time an apple would if you drop it from the same distance above the ground at the same time. the force of gravity is the same on everything on earth.
False. Gravity on the moon is 1/6 that of Earth.
One false statement about root-hairs is that they can sense gravity. It is a common misconception that gravity effects the direction of growth.
False, the gravity on the sheet of paper is the same regardless of its shape. However the crumpled sheet has less air resistance than the flat sheet allowing it to fall faster.
False. You will have the same mass on our moon, but weigh 1/6th as much as on the Earth.
False. While gravity is weaker in outer space compared to that on Earth, it still exists. Gravity is what keeps objects in orbit around planets and stars, and even affects the interactions between celestial bodies in the universe.
