According to Newton's third law of motion, when an apple falls towards the Earth, does the apple attract the Earth?

According to Newton's third law of motion, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This means that the apple does attract the Earth with a force equal in magnitude to the force with which the Earth attracts the apple. However, because the Earth's mass is so much larger than the apple's mass, the resulting acceleration of the Earth towards the apple is extremely small and practically unnoticeable.
