Gravitation is the acting force between two bodies. On the other hand, gravity is the force occurring between an object and the very big object earth. Every object with some mass exerts the gravitational force on every other object having some mass. This force and its strength depend on the masses of the objects under consideration. Gravity helps to keep the planets to move in their orbit around the sun.
Gravitation is the force of attraction between any two bodies in the universe. In our universe, each object attracts each other with a certain amount of force. The large distance of separation is the main reason for its weak nature.
Gravity is the weakest type of fundamental force in nature. Still, it holds together the entire solar systems and galaxies.
Gravity has the existence with unlimited range.

You're talking about a grain of sand or a stone or a rock that's drifting in space, and then the Earth happens to get in the way, so the stone falls down to Earth, and it makes a bright streak of light while it's falling through the atmosphere and burning up from the friction.
-- While it's drifting in space, it's a <em>meteoroid</em>.
-- While it's falling through the atmosphere burning up and making a bright streak of light, it's a <em>meteor</em>.
-- If it doesn't completely burn up and there's some of it left to fall on the ground, then the leftover piece on the ground is a <em>meteorite</em>.
