Cakes can dip or 'drop' when cooling if they are knocked, or if, when they are removed from the oven, there is a large difference in temperature. This can sometimes cause the cake to change shape slightly.
Part of the rise is from steam trapped in the cake. As it cools, the steam condenses so the cake deflates some.
So the cakes rise. If you used plain flour, the cakes wouldn't rise and they would be flat!

Yes. Cakes rise in the center during baking for a few reasons. Flour and yeast can cause it to rise, but also hot air cooks inside the cake. With heat, the air is converted into steam which causes the cake to puff up and rise some more.
