A meteoroid has a rocky, uneven ball-like shape, but is not perfectly round. It is more like seeing a boulder on Earth-- uneven, unwieldy, misshapen, jagged, etc. However, a meteoroid breaks up as it enters Earth's atmosphere and burns. It fragments. So only some small fragments survive the intense heat.
Nobody knows really
Its a meteoroid! or an asteroid

Absolutely not. The Sun is not a meteoroid, it is a star. A meteoroid is a chunk of rock and debris travelling through space.

Yes.
The meteoroid hurtled through space towards Earth.
The space rock is the celestial space object that a meteoroid comes from.
A meteoroid is not the same as a meteorite. A meteoroid is a small piece of rock or even dust flying through space.

After it hits Earth, a meteoroid is called a meteor.
No. The gravity of a meteoroid is negligible, so it cannot hold onto an atmosphere.
