It doesn't create anything automatically - it usually creates them based on how the user wants it to be configured. For the most part, you will have around 2-3 partitions for a basic "everything in one partition" setup (a /boot partition, optionally an ESP if you are using UEFI, and a root partition).

How many partitions can be created in Linux?

This depends on the age of the kernel being used, the type of drive, and the software used to partition the drive. Older Linux systems had a limit of 63 partitions for IDE drives and 15 for SCSI. Kernels before around 2.6.28.5 that used libATA limited all drives to 15 partitions. Experimentation with more recent kernels indicates a limit around 130 partitions per drive. Many partitioning programs available for Linux are still limited to 63 partitions or less.
