Answer 1

Check also this answer here which is related to your problem and gives this source (https://hg.python.org/cpython/file/3.6/) from python.org.

How did I get there? In python,

>>> import _tkinter
>>> _tkinter.__file__
'/usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_tkinter.so'

Then in Google: "Python lib-dynload source".
