For the 1st question, it is like an analogy question.
function : structure :: behavior : physical form and cellular organization

Hope it help!

For the 2nd question, it is not easy to explain; however, I will try.

For the 1st blank, industry must supplant or overtake agriculture so that industrialists could seize economic power (from land owners). And for the 2nd question, such power belonged to land ownership. So, the answer is E.

People should not be praised for their virtue if they lack energy to be ___ ; in such cases goodness is merely the effect of ___

should not be praised for their virtue....it means they dont show virtue...so first blank should be opposite of virtue......second blank should be something which is related to lack of energy rather the cause of that...so it is indolence----
