b

Answer to Question 2

Asymmetry is the rule in planetary nebulae rather than the exception. A number of causes have been suggested. A disk of gas around a star's equator might form during the slow-wind stage and then deflect the fast wind into oppositely directed flows. Another star or planets orbiting the dying star, rapid rotation, or magnetic fields might cause peculiar shapes.
