One has to tension belts and chains according to what torque is needed on an engine. The tension varies upon each engine. If one needs this done one should look into a mechanic.

Which is more effective gears or belts?
You seem to be comparing apples and oranges here. They have different applications and for the most part are not interchangeable. However, comparing chains to belts, chains have typically lower energy loss, and require less tension than belts. However belts are often lighter, and can be designed to 'absorb' impact loads (like a hard hitting clutch locking, creating a sudden peak in force that would normally be transferred through the entire drive train, but instead can be 'absorbed' by the stretch of the belt and released over a longer time as a lower force). Belts also have lower lifespans.
How is the camshaft driven by thr crankshaft?
Depends on the type of engine. Some use chains and others use belts. Chains can be noisy and belts can brake. The Suzuki Ignis uses a special Suzuki 'silent chain'.
Do serpentine belts stretch?
Yes, you can stretch it to put it on and then adjust the tension.
