It isn't. Terminal is an application and is located in
/Applications/Utilities . Python is an executable, and is
typically located in a "bin" directory. To find out where
it is, type
type python
at the shell prompt (that's the first prompt you get if you
open a Terminal window).
Possible answers include:
/usr/bin/python
This is the Python shipped by Apple
/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/bin/python
This is a Python from python.org
/opt/local/bin/python
This is a Python from macports

If you mean /usr/bin, that's the Python that came with your Mac.
If you haven't installed any other Pythons, then yes, you must
be using that one.
Hope this helps,
