if you get to fourth down you would either kick a fieldgoal or punt. If you tried your chances and went for the ten yards on 4th down, and made it, its a first down. If you dont make it, the other team gets the ball on the spot you were tackeled.

Also, if the offensive team is called for a holding penalty in their end zone the result is a safety regardless of whether the quarterback was in the end zone at the time of the penalty.

When on offense if the ball is fumbled into the back of the end zone what happens?

Depending on which side recovers the loose ball. If the defense player does it is a safety and worth 2 points to that team and they get the ball back on a kick off. If the offensive player gets it, and makes it out of the end zone he takes it as far as he can and the game continues from there. If the offensive player gets it and is tackled inside the end zone, it is again a safety for the other team. Do you mean if the ball is fumbled out of the back of the end zone? In that case, it's a safety awarded to the defense. If the ball is fumbled into the end zone but the offense recovers and is tackled, that's also a safety. If the ball is fumbled into the end zone but the defense recovers, it's a touchdown for the defense.

In football what is a safety?

A safety is when the ball carrier is tackled in his own end zone. The defensive team is awarded 2 points, and the the offense then free kicks from their own 20-yard line, so the team who just received 2 points also gets the ball back after the free kick. It's also a safety when offensive holding is called on a player while he is in his end zone.
