Not necessarily. If the exponent is not an integer then it is not a polynomial.
That varies from polynomial to polynomial. Whatever the highest exponent is is called the "degree", so a quadratic like x2 + 2x + 8 has degree 2.
No. An expression can have a variable exponent (for instance, 2 to the power x, or x to the power y), but that is no longer a polynomial.
Not necessarily. Every exponent in the exponent must be a non-negative integer. This is not what you have specified. For example, if n = 3.5, it is not a term in a polynomial expression.
