its a fifty fifty chance we just dont know It depends on how fast the asteroid is moving and the size of the asteroid. Then you have to consider the size of the planet (diameter, etc.), and its orbital speed, etc.
Which asteroid? depending on its size, an asteroid impact could be devastating for life on Earth, though life would recover somehow eventually.
The difference between asteroid and meteorite is basically the size. Anything more than about 10 m in diameter is called an asteroid.
The largest asteroid in our solar system is called Ceres, and it is located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. Ceres is classified as a dwarf planet due to its size and is about 590 miles (940 kilometers) in diameter.
It is highly unlikely for Uranus to be crushed by an asteroid due to its massive size and strong gravitational pull. The probability of an asteroid colliding with Uranus and causing significant damage is very low.
It would depend on the size of the asteroid.
An asteroid
yes from the size of a pea to the size of Pluto
One the size of a grain of sand.

depending on the size it could destroy the planet or impact in the water and not do much. It all depends on the size of said asteroid!

93 million miles
No. Apophis is an asteroid about the size of a skyscraper.

Asteroids can range size to a grain of sand to 600 miles! Olivia
An asteroid is larger than a meteoroid, though the actual size requirement is not defined.
