Does update_option() create database entry? Need help to understand it.

I read the codex also checked phpmyadmin but I could not understand how exactly does it work?

Where are we saving the username so that we are getting mike the frog profile in admin dashboard?

I can not see any wptreehouse_badges in options page. Please elaborate how it exactly works.

Have many questions about this video.

update_option() will update if it already exists and will create it if it does not already exist.
