The Earth has a greater gravitational attraction than the Moon.
Explanation: Earth is much more massive, so its gravitational field (and the acceleration it produces) is stronger. (Note: the mutual gravitational force between Earth and Moon is equal in magnitude on each body—Newton’s third law—but Earth’s gravity is stronger overall because of its larger mass.)
