? ? ? ? ?

1. what has gravity?

anything that has mass
everything

1. an object that has less mass has ______ gravitational force.

more
less

1. when two objects are closer together, there is ______ gravitational force between them.

less
more

1. no matter where you are on earth, all things will fall ______.

downward
upward

1. because all things fall toward the center of earth, this means that earth is shaped like a ______.

dome
sphere

Explanation:

Step1: Match first question to term

What has gravity? → **anything that has mass** (matches the top-left term, and the answer is "everything")

Step2: Match second question to term

Less mass → **less** gravitational force

Step3: Match third question to term

Closer objects → **more** gravitational force

Step4: Match fourth question to term

Earth objects fall → **downward**

Step5: Match fifth question to term

Earth's shape → **sphere**

Step6: Unscramble code words

Take the first letter of each chosen term:
- **A**nything that has mass
- **L**ess
- **M**ore
- **D**ownward
- **S**phere
Unscrambled: **ALMDS** → rearranged to **MADLS**? No, correct rearrangement: **SALMD**? No, wait, correct first letters:
Wait, correct chosen terms' first letters:
1. **E**verything (answer to first question) → no, the drag term is "anything that has mass", first letter **A**
2. **L**ess
3. **M**ore
4. **D**ownward
5. **S**phere
Rearranged: **A, L, M, D, S** → **MADLS** is not a word, wait no: the correct code is formed by the first letters of the *drag-in terms*:
1. Drag: **anything that has mass** → first letter **A**
2. Drag: **less** → first letter **L**
3. Drag: **more** → first letter **M**
4. Drag: **downward** → first letter **D**
5. Drag: **sphere** → first letter **S**
Rearranged to form a word: **SALAD**? No, wait, no—wait the correct matches:
Wait, first question: What has gravity? → **everything** (the bottom-right term), so drag "anything that has mass" to answer, and the answer word is "everything". The first letter of the *drag term* is **A**
Second: less mass → **less** force, drag "less", first letter **L**
Third: closer objects → **more** force, drag "more", first letter **M**
Fourth: fall → **downward**, drag "downward", first letter **D**
Fifth: Earth shape → **sphere**, drag "sphere", first letter **S**
Rearranged: **A, L, M, D, S** → **MADLS** is wrong, wait no—wait the code word is **SALAD**? No, wait, maybe I mixed up:
Wait, no, the code is from the *answer terms*:
1. **E**verything
2. **L**ess
3. **M**ore
4. **D**ownward
5. **S**phere
First letters: E, L, M, D, S → **MELD S**? No, wait, correct code word is **SMLED**? No, wait, no—let's do the matching correctly first, then unscramble.

Correct question-term matches:
1. What has gravity? → **anything that has mass** (answer: everything)
2. An object that has less mass has ____ gravitational force. → **less**
3. When two objects are closer together, there is ____ gravitational force between them. → **more**
4. No matter where you are on Earth, all things will fall ____. → **downward**
5. Because all things fall toward the center of Earth, this means that Earth is shaped like a ____. → **sphere**

Now take the first letter of each *drag-in term*:
- A (anything that has mass)
- L (less)
- M (more)
- D (downward)
- S (sphere)

Rearrange these letters to form a word: **SALAD**? No, wait, **MADLS** is not a word—wait, no, the first letter of the *answer* (not drag term):
- E (everything)
- L (less)
- M (more)
- D (downward)
- S (sphere)
→ **SMLED** no, wait, **DREAMS**? No, missing R. Wait, no, the drag terms are:
Wait, the fifth question's drag term is "sphere", first letter S; fourth is D, third M, second L, first A. **A, L, M, D, S** → **MALDS** no, wait, **SALAD** is A, L, A, D, S—oh! I see, I missed that the first term is "anything that has mass" → first letter A, but maybe the code is from the *answer words*:
1. everything → E
2. less → L
3. more → M
4. downward → D
5. sphere → S
→ **MELDS**! Yes, that's a word (melts, but spelled M-E-L-D-S: no, **MELDS** is a valid word, meaning to blend). Wait, no, **SLEMD** no. Wait, no, let's do the matching first, then the code.

First, complete the blanks:
1. What has gravity? → **anything that has mass** (answer: everything)
2. An object that has less mass has ____ gravitational force. → **less**
3. When two objects are closer together, there is ____ gravitational force between them. → **more**
4. No matter where you are on Earth, all things will fall ____. → **downward**
5. Because all things fall toward the center of Earth, this means that Earth is shaped like a ____. → **sphere**

Now, take the first letter of each *filled blank term*:
- A (anything that has mass)
- L (less)
- M (more)
- D (downward)
- S (sphere)

Rearrange to form a word: **SALAD** is not possible, but **MALDS** no—wait, **DAMSL** no. Wait, no, the code is from the *answer words* (the bottom right terms):
- E (everything)
- L (less)
- M (more)
- U (upward? No, we used downward)
- S (sphere)
No, wait, I made a mistake in the fourth question: things fall downward, correct. Fifth question: Earth is a sphere, correct.

Wait, the code word is **MADLS** no, wait, **ALMSD** no. Wait, no, the first letters are A, L, M, D, S → **SALAD** is missing an A, but the first term is "anything that has mass" (two A's). Oh! Wait, the code uses the first letter of the *answer* (the word in the blank), not the drag term:
1. Blank answer: **everything** → E
2. Blank answer: **less** → L
3. Blank answer: **more** → M
4. Blank answer: **downward** → D
5. Blank answer: **sphere** → S

Rearrange E, L, M, D, S → **MELDS** (yes, that's a valid word: to combine or blend).

Answer:

Completed Blanks:

1. What has gravity? → anything that has mass (answer: everything)
2. An object that has less mass has $\boldsymbol{less}$ gravitational force.
3. When two objects are closer together, there is $\boldsymbol{more}$ gravitational force between them.
4. No matter where you are on Earth, all things will fall $\boldsymbol{downward}$.
5. Because all things fall toward the center of Earth, this means that Earth is shaped like a $\boldsymbol{sphere}$.

Unscrambled Code Word:

$\boldsymbol{MELDS}$
