Which phrase best describes a meteoroid
Licemer1 [7]
Hello!

The phrase that best describes a meteoroid is "Small pieces of rock and dust in space"

They commonly are fragments of comets and asteroids that had been separated from them by heavy impacts. When a meteoroid enters the atmosphere, it burns, and the glow that this burn produces is what we call "shooting stars". However, the correct definition is the mentioned above.

Have a nice day!
