Question 2
This question dealt with apoptosis.
Potentially a number of potential answers here, including: cleavage of caspases, release of cytochrome c from mitochondria, autodigestion of cellular contents.
Apoptosis facilitates the removal of defective cells and allows for the refinement of normal development.
Would accept other answers here. Any reference to the role of apoptosis in clearing infection or cancer is reasonable.
There may be a mutation in a death receptor molecule that makes it constitutively active/more sensitive to death ligands, thereby seeing the threshold for the activation of apoptosis decrease and more apoptosis occur.
As above, there are many potential answers here. The marks will come from providing a reasonable (at a VCE level) mechanism for the increased likelihood of apoptosis and making a statement about the effect of your described mechanism on seeing more cells die.
EDIT: formatting didn't work—we'll post a complete set of answers later, but this is legible from context.
