According to Newton's third law, the response to this force is, the gravitational force exerted on Earth by the Moon.

What is gravitational force?

Newton's Third Laws are a pair that describe the gravitational attractions of the Earth and Moon. If object A applies a force to object B, consequently object B must apply a force to object A in the opposite direction and of equal strength. Equal and opposing gravitational pulls are exerted by the Earth's gravity on the Moon and the Moon's gravity on the Earth. The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon in an orbit around us. The direction of the Moon's motion is continually changing. This indicates that, despite moving at a constant pace, the Moon is always accelerating due to gravity. Therefore, there is a gravitational force exerted on Earth by the Moon.
