Which is most likely to make frequent of earth a comet or a asteroid why?

Asteroids are more likely to make frequent visits to Earth compared to comets. This is because asteroids primarily reside in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter, and their orbits can bring them into proximity with Earth's orbit. In contrast, comets originate from the outer regions of the solar system, such as the Kuiper Belt and the Oort Cloud, and have long, elliptical orbits that take them far from the inner solar system, resulting in less frequent encounters with Earth.
