Correct Answer: increases


Solution : The correct choice is the third option.

The word "increases" is the most appropriate choice to complete the sentence. Gravity not only causes objects to fall, but it also influences the speed at which they fall, leading to an increase in velocity as objects are pulled towards the Earth.

Therefore, the complete sentence is: Gravity not only causes bodies to fall but also increases their speed.
