Answers:
1. : The "stack with original" box in LR Preferences is External editing, and means, to have an edited copy of a picture next to the original one when you return to the Lightroom preferences from a program like photoshop. It is helpful because it is easier to find your images and keep everything organized.
2.  Scanners can give a photograph or specific object detail, in a way a camera cannot. It can also capture a different stand and focus point a camera cannot comprehend.
3. Gregory Crewdson, didn't actually take his untitled photograph. Instead,  he had a cinematographer capture the picture in which he organized and planned out for weeks. He set the scene and mood, but had another person take the photograph for him.
