Sometimes comets are referred to as “dirty snowballs” or “cosmic snowballs”. This is because they are composed mostly of ice, rock, gas and dust. Comets orbit the Sun in elliptical paths – just like the planets. The path of a comet though is far more elliptical than that of any planet.
A comet has four components: a nucleus, a coma, a dust tail and an ion tail.
The nucleus of a comet contains the vast majority of its total mass.
Comets have a halo when they move close to the Sun. (theplanets.org)

A meteor shower occurs when the Earth passes through the trail of debris left by a comet or asteroid. Meteors are bits of rocks and ice ejected from comets as they move in their orbits about the sun. A meteor that reaches the ground it is called a meteorite.
Meteor showers get their names from the constellation in where their radiant is located.
Comets continuously eject material with each passage around the sun; this replenishes the shower meteoroids.
A fireball is a meteor that is brighter than the planet Venus. (nasa.com)

Most asteroids are in a “belt”.
Asteroids (can) have moons.
Asteroids are leftovers of the early Solar System. Asteroids are made of different things.

Despite their small size, water may flow on asteroid surfaces.
