Most meteors disintegrate in the mesosphere as they fall closer to Earth. The mesosphere is the layer of the atmosphere located above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere, and it is where most meteoroids burn up due to the intense heat caused by friction with the air.
Meteoroids often disintegrate in Earth's atmosphere due to the intense heat generated by air friction during entry. This process causes the outer layers of the meteoroid to vaporize and break apart, resulting in the formation of a bright streak of light known as a meteor or shooting star. Only the largest and most robust meteoroids are able to survive the intense heat and make it to the Earth's surface as meteorites.
They are attracted by the gravitational attraction of the earth.

Only partially. Meteoroids passing near Earth are affected by Earth's gravity, but they are traveling far faster than escape velocity, that gravity is usually insufficient to cause an impact. Rather, meteoroids strike Earth and its atmosphere when their trajectories around the sun intersect that of Earth such that they will pass through the same place at the same time. In the case of a near-miss, Earth's gravity will alter an asteroid's or meteoroid's orbit. In some cases this change can lead to a collision later on.
Not sure about "full on earth" but meteoroids which fall to earth are called meteorites.
meteoriods are most likely rocky firballs and when they fall to earth they come as dust
meteorites
disintegrate or fragment
Meteors disintegrate as they enter the Earth's atmosphere, specifically in the mesosphere, which is located approximately 50 to 85 kilometers (31 to 53 miles) above the Earth's surface. The intense friction and heat generated by their rapid descent through the atmosphere cause them to burn up, creating the bright streaks of light commonly referred to as "shooting stars." Most meteors disintegrate before reaching the Earth's surface.
On Earth, approximately 250 babies are born, 100 lightning bolts strike the ground, and 40,000 tons of meteoroids fall into the atmosphere.
