Answer to Question 1

Mimas has an orbital period precisely twice that of matter in the Cassini Division. As such, it exerts a regular tug on particles there, pulling them to an orbit further out. The particles stay in the outer orbit once they collide with other particles and lose excess energy.

Answer to Question 2

C
