Your Answer for Question 1:
Regularity allows multiple functions to use the same modules; which, along with simplicity, allows for fewer gates and makes the instructions require fewer clock cycles, speeding up the system.

Your Answer for Question 2:
If it is asserted, the register will be written over by the input at the next clock edge.

Your Answer for Question 3:
The separate adder computes the branch target.  If the ALU sends the answer of a computation to a memory target, the ALU computes the answer while the adder computes the branch target.

Since the ALU cannot compute both values at once, the separate adder is needed.
