  1. In simple terms...

    The crossover in the speaker (the little PCB) will make it an 8 ohm load in the way that the three drivers are connected and filtered.

    Impedance isn't resistance despite the fact it is measure in ohms - it's a function of capacitance, resistance and inductance. The crossover's components will have also impedance of their own.
