gravitation and gravity are distinct. "Gravitation" is the attractive influence that all objects exert on each other, while "gravity" specifically refers to a force which all massive objects (objects with mass) are theorized to exert on each other to cause gravitation. Although these terms are interchangeable in everyday use, in theories other than Newton's, gravitation is caused by factors other than gravity. For example in general relativity, gravitation is due to spacetime curvatures which causes inertially moving objects to tend to accelerate towards each other. Another (discredited) example is Le Sage's theory of gravitation, in which massive objects are effectively pushed towards each other.

Gravity comes from the forces of our planet pulling things toward the core... (earths gravity...)

Gravity in generally comes from the massive force pulling things together..

gravity is made of tiny super particals g-particals but its called gravity .any way it it comes from a force which generated by the energy and mass of an object to an object less in size or in the details i pre-said

Pretty much when there are 2 or more matters of energy gravity is there.....O.o.....and gravity co-exists with time and space, so if gravity vanished so will time and space......yeah crappy answer i know, but thats all i could think of.....

Gravity is the curvature of space-time caused by anything with mass or energy.

our distance from the sun effects gravity i think.

this really isn't a chemistry question per se, but it comes from the orbital spin of the earth.
