Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -What is the difference? An asteroid is a rocky object that orbits the Sun. Asteroids are smaller than a planet, but they are larger than the pebble-size objects we call meteoroids. Comets are small icy dirtballs that orbit the Sun; comets are made of ice and dust while asteroids are made of rock).
Detailed explanation-2: -Most asteroids are found in a ring between the orbit of Mars and Jupiter called the asteroid belt. Some asteroids are round, some are elongated, and some even have a satellite. A comet also orbits the Sun, but unlike an asteroid, it’s composed of ice and dust.
