Answer:

A. tension

Explanation:

The reason that astronauts float is due to their free fall, that is, when astronauts are in Earth orbit, Earth gravity attracts them. when astronauts travel to the moon, this attraction that the earth imposes on them is much smaller, called the outer attraction. This external attraction exerts on the astronauts a tention, since the gravity of the moon is insignificant.
