3. No, not in the true sense of martial arts. Wrestling is a high school sport, but is not truly grappling because you don't use submissions. You can use principles and ways of movement taught in wrestling to compliment one's grappling or brazillian jujitsu training but no, by itself, is not a martial art.
4. Judo and Jujitsu are forms of wrestling
