During the lab, a marble was rolled across the space-time fabric with a shot put in the center. The marble’s path curved toward the shot put. Which explanation best describes what the model represented?

1. The marble was attracted to the shot put because the shot put had less mass.

2. The marble stopped moving because gravity removed its inertia.

3. The marble's inertia caused it to move, while gravity from the shot put changed its path.

4. The shot put pushed the marble away as it moved across the fabric.

#3- The marble's inertia caused it to move, while gravity from the shot put changed its path.
