Default Laptop batteries

Hello Gateway group. I have three quick questions about laptops and batteries.

1) When you plug-in and unplug the AC adapter for laptops, do you need to turn the computer off first? I thought there might be some safety issues here.

2) It is my understanding that when the AC adapter is plugged in and running, the battery automatically begins charging, without the need for the user to do anything, such as launching a program or pushing any buttons. Is that correct?

3) Does the battery charge even while the computer is turned off?
