There are several hundreds of them, all harmless as none of them goes above 20 volts.

Recent MacBook laptops all use LED backlight, so there are no high voltages anywhere in the device.

Yes it has one. Helps hold your settings. Why would you want to put your grubby fingers on the logic board to find it? No it won't hurt you, but I might, if you stick you fingers on the logic board without being aware of ESD damage that you might cause.
