The Brussels sprout (Brassica oleracea Gemmifera Group) is a cultivar group of Wild Cabbage cultivated for its small (typically 2.5-4 cm diameter) leafy green heads, which resemble miniature cabbages. The name stems from the original place of cultivation, not because of the vegetable's popularity in Brussels.

No, they are brassicas but different species. Cabbage only has one head (cabbage plant) per stalk and grow closer to the ground. Brussels sprouts are multi headed growing up a tall stalk.

I think you are referring to brussels sprouts which look like small or tiny cabbages.

No, sprouts and cabbages are different species. They are different plants completely.

I believe it of the same family but not an actual cabbage - even though it looks like one.

No.
Cabbages grow on the ground and are a whole plant. Sprouts are little buds that grow on a stalk. Though they are both part of the brassica family and good for induding farts.

It is a member of the brassica family as is a cabbage but it is a different species.
