Macintosh is based upon Unix, so when you compare the 2, you are comparing a type of unix and windows. Unix is generally thought of as safer and less susceptible to attack by viruses.
Apple comes standard with the Snow Leopard (10.6), a 64 bit unix based operating system.
Yes. Macintosh and other UNIX based systems are still at risk of getting viruses and trojans, however they are extremely rare.
No, but Linux is based on Unix since Linux is a Unix clone.

There are 2 major OS for Macintosh computers: the original, Mac OS 9 or earlier, which was a single threaded system. Now there is Mac OS X, a UNIX based operating system, found on later computers. Modern Intel based Macs can run Windows and Linux as well as Mac OS X.The original Apple computers, including the Macintosh had a proprietary operating system named Mac OS and ran on Motorola 68000 processors and its descendants: 68020, 68030, 68040. Starting in 1994, Macintosh starting using the IBM PowerPc processors: PowerPC 601, 603, 604, G3, G4, G5.In 2006, Apple switched to Intel processors running with Mac OS X (Macintosh Operating System version 10), an implementation of the Unix operating system.
UNIX is a command-based OS. In contrast, Windows is a menu-based OS.
Not sure what you are asking. The operating system for Macintosh computers is OS X. It is a modified version of UNIX. The processor chips (currently i3, i5 & i7) used in Macintosh computers for some years now are made by Intel, the same chip used in most PCs today.
Linux is a Unix-like system. This means that it is inspired or influenced by Unix in some shape or form (Linux started off from Minix), but it is not directly derived from Unix. However, BSD is based on Unix, and macOS is indirectly Unix-based because of its mixed heritage with BSD.
