being a front wheel drive, the yaris does feed power to either one of the front wheels,yes??
via an incorporated differential type thing yes?
also when so many people refer to all wheel drive they mean one of 2 wheels are powered
,one in front and one in back,yes??

Not sure I understand what your question is...

A fwd w/ an open differential becomes a single wheel drive car when one surface is slick like ice or one wheel experienced full wheel spin

Awd set ups vary and some are virtual full 4 wheel drive while other essentially a single wheel drive on each axle front and rear

no. the yaris is stock without LSD. power goes the least path of resistance.
no. AWD is what is says, All Wheel Drive. power is feed to all wheels. design of the differentials and transfur case (if applicable) will dictate where the power goes.
