Default In Need of "Car Audio 101" Education

Can you guys help me better understand some of the basics of car audio?

1 - What does the "Channel" mean and what does it imply (1, 2, 4, etc.).

2 - How does the "ohms" come into play?

3 - What does RMS mean and how does this tie into the Amp (is there a rule of thumb for amperage)?

4 - Ported boxes vs. sealed.... pros & cons?

5 - What are the basic "do's" and "dont's"?

Thanks all!
