The correct statement that explains how weight is different from mass is: **Weight is a measure of gravitational pull.**
Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object and does not change regardless of location, while weight is the force exerted on that mass by gravity and can vary depending on the gravitational pull experienced by the object (for example, an object weighs less on the Moon than on Earth).
