The force of friction is ultimately the result of forces between atoms of the two constituent objects that are touching.
At the atomic level, the explanation of friction is complex and it is not an resolved and well defined scientific topic, but leaving details aside, one is certain that atomic forces are at the origin of friction.
Two simple aspects are important to mention. First, the atoms in different contacting surfaces experience attractive and repulsive forces when interacting with atoms in another surface when there is a separation of less than a few angstroms.
Second, the irregularity of two surfaces in contact mean that sliding friction and static friction will be different and sliding friction may involve breaking atoms or sections of material from the surfaces.
The types of friction and the complexities of friction are too enormous to begin to characterize in a short answer beyond saying that it must involve atomic and materials processes at the interface of two interacting materials. And, that does not even include internal friction such a a fluid would experience.

The force that acts on objects that are not moving is static friction. Static friction prevents the object from moving when a force is applied to it, until the force overcomes the static friction and causes motion.
The force you are referring to is friction. Friction opposes motion and causes objects to slow down and eventually come to a stop.
The force of friction between the tires and the road surface is what primarily causes a car to stop. When the brakes are applied, the brake pads press against the rotating wheels, generating friction that slows down the car.
The force that causes the car to stop by opposing its motion is friction. Friction occurs between the tires of the car and the road surface, creating a force that resists the motion of the car, ultimately bringing it to a stop.
The force that causes a change in the motion of an object is called an external force. This force can come from various sources, such as gravity, friction, or contact with another object.

Friction is when two objects touch each other, either smooth or rough friction causes the object to slow down. Also an unbalanced force is when the net force isn't 0 which causes a object to move and cause friction other than a balanced force is when the net force is 0.

friction, dah!
Friction is a force present when things rub against eachother. Friction causes heat energy, and it also causes motion between surfaces to be reduced.
Friction is considered a force because it acts on an item and causes changes, which is what a force is. Nothing would happen if the item was in an area where friction was not possible or if friction was where an object was not since they need each other to exert external effort.
Unbalanced force is a type of force that causes an object to start moving.
