When the striker on the gun strikes the primer, it explodes, causing the gunpowder in the casing to ingite. The explosion propels the bullet down the barrel.
A bullet is the part of a cartridge that is fired from the gun. A cartridge consists of a cartridge case, primer, powder, and the bullet. The primer is struck by the firing pin, and explodes. In doing so, it ignites the gunpowder. Rapidly burning powder produces a rapidly expanding gas. This pushes the bullet out of the barrel.
No. Something has to ignite the primer.
A primer will usually get it out of the case.
When the primer is struck, it ignites. When it does, it ingites the powder charge. The powder charge explosion pushes the bullet down and then out of the barrel.
Bullets have no explosives. You may be thinking of a cartridge, which is a case, powder, primer, and bullet. It is very unlikely that the cartridge will do much of anything, but if the primer is struck hard enough, it can make a loud bang, but is unlikely to hurt anyone.

Yes. The bullet is only the projectile. A bullet with case, powder, and primer is a cartridge. A cartridge without powder or primer is called a dummy cartridge because it will fit into a firearm but will not fire. Dummies are used for non firing training with weapons, and for display purposes.

Has its own primer, powder, case, projectile.

Firing Pin
It may ignite if you hit the primer.
The term is cartridge- that is a cartridge case, powder, primer, and bullet (that's the part that comes out of the barrel) It is extremely dangerous to attempt to remove a live primer from a loaded cartridge. Once the primer has been fired, reloaders use a tool called a deprimer to push the old primer out from the inside- but pushing on a LIVE primer will almost certainly make it fire. Very unsafe, please do not fool with that.
Handguns work by having some mechanism hit a sensitive primer to initiate a control deflagration and shoot a bullet. If a handgun doesn't have an external hammer that either strikes a firing pin or the primer directly, it will have an internal hammer--called a striker.
