There is no thumb valve on a single horn. However, the valve on a double horn is used to make the notes easier to play. You can play higher and lower notes, and have more diverse fingerings.
No, the French horn has no buttons. However, there are 4 valves; the 1st valve, the 2nd valve, the 3rd valve, and the thumb key.
If you have a single horn, it's fingers 1 and 2 for A natural, and fingers 2 and 3 for A flat. If you have a double horn, you can add the thumb key to open the B flat side of the horn.
It does if it's a double horn.

The french horn is typically pitched in F. Double horns are pitched in F and B-flat (they have a thumb valve that switches it from F to B-flat). Single B-flat horns aren't rare but are definitely not as commonly used.
Each valve on a french horn has a specific pipe coming off of it, known as the valve tube.
If you have a single horn, it's fingers 1 and 2 for A natural, and fingers 2 and 3 for A flat. If you have a double horn, you can add the thumb key to open the B flat side of the horn.

There is the French Horn and a Bb Horn.
To play a B on the French Horn, hold down the middle valve and blow. However, usually French Horn music features B flats, and in that case you would hold down the first valve and blow.

There are two main types of valves. These are the piston valve and the rotary valve. The french horn uses a rotary valve, when a trumpet or baritone uses a piston valve. The tuba has been know to use either one.
