Is PhP and MySql used in database creation on websites. Is ms-access used to retrieve information from MySql

you can use php's built in mysql functions. ms access plays absolutely no role in it whatsoever.

MS Access can be used to replace MySQL

It can be, and other combinations of server side code and database servers can also be used.

Or did you mean "Can PHP and MySQL be used to create a database driven website" ?

Yes, MS Access can be used to access data from a MySQL server, provided the ODBC drivers for MYSQL are installed on the machine Access is running on.

access can be used as well as a host of other things but he's asking what IS used when creating a db with php and mysql and logically the answer is php.

I you're already useing php and mysql it make s no sense to try and use access since your application will be very limited and arguably slower.
