If someone told you that there’s no difference between an asteroid and a meteoroid; how would you explain that there is a difference using facts to support your answer.

An asteroid is a small rocky object that orbits the Sun.

Asteroids are smaller than a planet, but they are larger than the pebble-size objects we call meteoroids.

A meteor is what happens when a small piece of an asteroid or comet, called a meteoroid, burns up upon entering Earth's atmosphere.
