An asteroid, because the orbits of the asteroids are nearer to the earth than the comets.
No. There is no comet or asteroid or meteor going to hit the Earth. Most of it is superstition.
The scale of damage potentially caused by an asteroid or comet impacting Earth is known as the Torino Scale. It is used to communicate the potential threat level of near-Earth objects (NEOs) impacting our planet.
Asteroid: A relatively small, inactive body, composed of rock, carbon or metal, which is orbiting the Sun. Comet: A relatively small, sometimes active object, which is composed of dirt and ices. Comets are characterized by dust and gas tails when in proximity to the Sun. Far from the Sun it is difficult to distinguish an asteroid from a comet. Meteoroid: A small particle from an asteroid or comet orbiting the Sun. Meteor: A meteoroid that is observed as it burns up in the Earth's atmosphere - a shooting star. Meteorite: A meteoroid that survives its passage through the Earth's atmosphere and impacts the Earth's surface.

An asteroid
A large comet or asteroid striking earth
Meteoroids definitely fall to Earth as dust or small stones. To the best of our knowledge, no asteroid or comet has fallen to Earth within recorded history. But as large as they are, it's likely that a lot more than dust would survive a trip through the atmosphere by either of them.
Probably an asteroid, meteor or comet.

You usually get a crater, with surrounding damage.

VERY likely.
