Yes, lists are implemented as dynamic arrays (but you shouldn't care about
it). "Textbook" linked lists are good for a CS course, but useless in most
usual circumstances (think of memory fragmentation). There are AVL trees
implemented in Python, but not built in.
Read the Python Tutorial specially this section

You may be interested in the collections module too
