Stony, Stony-Iron, Iron.
Meteorites do not have a genetic classification because they are not living organisms. They are fragments of solid matter, such as rocks or metals, that have fallen to Earth from space. Genetic classification is used for organisms to categorize them based on their genetic similarities and evolutionary relationships.
I would use a division paragraph to explain the differences between meteors, meteorites, and asteroids. This type of paragraph would allow me to clearly outline how these terms differ in terms of their characteristics, composition, and behavior without going into excessive detail.

Meteoroids, Meteor, Meteorites 1. Meteoroids- rock fragments travelling in space 2. Meteor- a meteoroid that passes through the Earth's atmosphere and produces a bright flash in the sky 3. Meteorites- meteors that have reached the Earth's surface or the ground
There are 3 main classifications of meteorites; Stony-iron meteorites, Iron meteorites and Stony meteorites. Stony-iron meteorites are mainly composed of meteoric iron which can be also found in Iron meteorites, Iron meteorites commonly contains iron nickel alloy and the Stony meteorites are the meteorites consists of silicate.
Iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites.
Iron meteorites, stony meteorites and stony-iron meteorites.
The two main types of meteorites that hit Earth are stony meteorites and iron meteorites. Stony meteorites are composed mainly of silicate minerals, while iron meteorites are composed mainly of metallic iron-nickel.
Meteorites fall into two classes, stony and iron. There is a belt of meteoric material near Mars, from which many of our meteorites come. Perhaps the debris from a broken planet? The iron meteorites, in fact iron-nickel mixtures, are magnetic. the stony meteorites are not. Have a look for Bode's Law in a reference source.
What is the size range of meteorites?
