in apache, there's one parent process (sometimes called thread) and some 
childs.
the parent reads the config, sets up sockets and spawn/maintains childs.
the childs are listening on the sockets, accept new connections, 
process, serve and close these connections.
that means: each established tcp connection on a port where apache is 
listening (e.g. 80 or 443) will be handled by a single child which 
handles the requests of that connection.

for how to config that stuff, see apache doc:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/server-wide.html#process

the number of sources don't affect the number of apache child threads.

no.
each user connecting to one of your webpage will use a child for his 
session, regardless of how many typo3_src you have or how many webpages 
are pointing to that sources.
