Why do heavier objects require more force than lighter
objects to move or accelerate them?

The answer to your question taken literally “How does a heavier object require more force than the lighter object?” is, it doesn’t. Objects do not require force.

What you probably mean is “Why does a heavier object require more force than a lighter object to accelerate at the same rate?”.

One answer is that F=MA, meaning the force F to accelerate an object of mass M at an acceleration of A is MA. So if you compare two masses, one heavier, and you hold A fixed, then mathematically as M increases F increases.
