Answer:
1. The main difference between stars and planets is that stars have high temperatures compared to planets. Stars undergo nuclear reactions—usually they burn hydrogen in their cores, releasing massive amounts of energy.
3.When meteoroids enter Earth's atmosphere at high speed and burn up, the fireballs or “shooting stars” are called meteors. When a meteoroid survives a trip through the atmosphere and hits the ground, it's called a meteorite.
