I wonder if there is increased exposure to a virus or etc by using the apps tabs ? where does the tab reside ?

app-tabs are basically tabs like the other tabs and for the most part they are treated as any other tab by any application/ extension that looks at tabs.

Is there a reason why you asked this question, like something you read?
