Correct: distance between the objects and masses of the objects.
Explanation: Newton's law of gravitation is F = G m1 m2 / r^2, so the force depends on the two masses and the separation r. Composition and volume do not directly affect the gravitational force (only the masses and how the mass is distributed); "weights of the objects" is just another name for the gravitational force, not an independent factor.
