What can I do with the mirror modifier?
Many modeling tasks involve creating objects that are symmetrical. This modifier offers a simple and efficient way to do this, with real-time update of the mirror as you edit it. Once your modeling is completed you can either click Apply to make a real version of your mesh, or leave it as-is for future editing.
Which is the axis along which to mirror?
The X, Y, Z axis along which to mirror, i.e. the axis perpendicular to the mirror plane of symmetry. To understand how the axis applies to the mirror direction, if you were to mirror on the X axis, the positive X values of the original mesh would become the negative X values on the mirrored side.
Can a vertex move away from the mirror plane?
But as soon as the vertices are within Merge Distance they are snapped together and cannot be moved beyond the mirror plane. Vertices on the mirror plane will be unable to move away from the mirror plane as long as Clipping is enabled.
How do I enable auto mirror in my Blender?

When do you need to use digital sculpting tools?

Where do you add a vertex to mirror a face?
The mirror modifier in your illustration is working exactly as it is designed to do. In this case, it is mirroring an edge. To complete a face, you need to add one more vertex, located at the intersection of a line perpendicular to the y axis, and the y axis, which passes through the vertex furthest from the y axis, and create the face.
How does Maya merge polygons into one shell?
Selects how you want the polygons to merge. When turned on (the default setting), Maya duplicates and flips the original polygon and merges the duplicated polygon with the original polygon. This makes the new polygonal object one shell. When turned off, Maya duplicates and flips the original polygon but does not merge the separate shells.
