Doppler effect in sound is called asymmetric, Explain.

Compare Doppler effect in light and sound.

In discussing Doppler effect, we use the word "apparent frequency". Does it mean that the frequency of the sound is still that of the source and it is some physiological phenomenon in the listener's ear that gives rise to Doppler effect ? Think for the observer approaching the source and for the source approaching the observer.

A sound source and listener are both stationary and a strong wind is blowing. Is there a Doppler effect?
