Small meteors may burn up as they travel through the atmosphere, but larger ones do get through the atmosphere and land on the surface of the Earth.
... compresses the air in front and around it so that the air glows and at night you see a "shooting star" - a meteor. If it impacts the ground before evaporating, it is a bolide and may leave a mineral remnant called a meteorite.
Meteors typically burn up in the mesosphere layer of the atmosphere, which is located between the stratosphere and thermosphere. This region is where most meteors vaporize due to the friction created by the high-speed entry through the Earth's atmosphere.
Meteors become glowing hot by extreme friction from passing through the Earth's atmosphere at high speed.
The Earth's atmosphere protects us from meteors. When meteors enter our atmosphere, they burn up due to the friction with air molecules, creating the streaks of light we see in the sky. Larger meteors that survive the journey through the atmosphere may impact the Earth's surface.
Meteors not chlorophyllansw2. Meteors if seen in the sky only, and meteorites if they land.
It does to some extent. Rocky meteors typically burn up as they pass through our thick atmosphere. Nickel-iron meteors can burn up, but usually have the mass to punch through to some degree.
Meteors don't have climates. To have a climate, you need an atmosphere. Meteors have no atmosphere.
they have to make it through the atmosphere before the atmoshere burns it up.

No. Meteors are fragments of rock and/or metal entering the atmosphere.
