Answer 1

What you're looking at on Facebook Business Manager is the WhatsApp account for your WhatsApp Business App. This is the 'WhatsApp for Business' app account that you can download from Google Playstore or Apple AppStore. In order for you to create and use WhatsApp Business API account, you need to create an api account. You can reach a Business Solution Provider to help you setup an account. More details can be found here on WhatsApp's official page.
