The correct statement that explains why astronauts appear to bounce when they are walking on the moon is:
The force of gravity acting on the astronauts is weaker on the moon than on Earth.
This weaker gravity causes astronauts to bounce rather than walk normally, unlike on Earth where gravity is stronger.
