Answer 1

Try to browse our place, we have a lot of similar discussions.
This is a quick pick, which I got by using 'resources python':

At a certain point, the official documentation at www.python.org may work best.

The most important thing is code projects. You have to learn how to think logically, translate real-life problems into code, figure it all out and kill the bugs.
But if there's still time left, well, I felt like it helped me read and understand code more quickly and get exposed to some messy stuff I wouldn't have looked into otherwise.
Don't get addicted though. Do them as long as you're learning something new, stop when the questions start to reappear and you already know them by heart.

Answer 3

Do you mean, when you write for web, solutions occur more easily to you?
It's all just practice. The more you study and - most of all - use a language, the easier it will become, just like with a natural language you learn.
Will challenges contribute to your understanding? Well, probably, a bit (as I described above).
But the main thing will be *writing*.
