How you start Apache will depend on what OS you are running. On Debian 
systems you would do:

/etc/init.d/apache start

and ps -e|grep apache would indicate if it worked.

On SUSE systems both starting it and what the process would be called 
differs, and so on for all other systems. We'll need more information to 
answer your question accurately.

Also, for very basic questions you'll find that search engines such as 
Google will generally answer your question faster than the list.
