The correct response is:
**Exists between any two objects with mass.**
Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation states that every point mass attracts every other point mass in the universe with a force that is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers. This means that gravitational force exists between any two objects that have mass, not just between Earth and objects on its surface.
