Solution

The correct option is A

gravity


The force due to which any matter is attracted towards the centre of the Earth is known as the force of gravity. Here the mango falls due to the force of gravity. The force of gravity is exerted by the Earth on mango. Once, the mango gets detached from its branch, the mango falls down due to gravity (Downwards pull).
