When I ask Firefox to search for anything, the answer is provided by Google, why, even though Firefox is my default browser?
Firefox is my default browser but all the answers to any seach question are supplied by Google.

Mozilla does not have its own search site as a search site is for example google.com, bing.com, yahoo.com etc.
You can choose from one of the default search engines that comes in search bar or you can add another site from say http://mycroftproject.com/
It sounds as if you are not using en-US Firefox as otherwise you would get search results from Yahoo instead by default since Firefox 34.0
Were you expecting search results from a mozilla.org url?

Firefox is my default browser ...
How is the default browser related to the search engine in your view?
... but all the answers to any seach question are supplied by Google.
Why is that a problem? What would you expect instead of Google?
As already mentioned, Firefox is a web browser, while Google is a search engine. If you want a different search engine than Google, see this support article to learn how to change it.
