No. "Action-reaction pair" implies that if an object "A" acts on object "B", then object "B" will also act on object "A". This isn't the case here.
Centrifugal forces at present do not exist in nature. However, the opposite of centrifugal forces, centripetal forces, do exist. Centrifugal forces are used only to explain that centripetal forces need an opposite force to act against it.
Centripetal ("towards the center") force is a real force, that pulls something towards the center during a circular movement. Centrifugal ("center-fleeing") force is a ficticious force, required to explain the observed reactions in a rotating frame of reference.
Centripetal force is a force that makes a body follow a curved path: it is always directed orthogonal to the velocity of the body, toward the instantaneous center of curvature of the path.I linked my source.
Centripetal force is provided by weight minus reaction equals centripetal force. It is towards the center of the bowling ball. When the bug is sliding down it will reach a point at which there is no force acting towards the center of the ball and the weight is acting vertically.
As the earth bulges a bit at the equator, you should stand at the poles to experience the most centripetal acceleration. Looking at the formula for centripetal acceleration (Ac= v2/r), we see that as the distance from the centre of the body (r) increases, the acceleration decreases, therefore when the distance to the centre mass is smaller, as it is at the poles compared to at the equator, the acceleration is greatest.

Yes. Sort of. If you consider the rotating system from the point of view of somebody OUTSIDE the system (not participating in the rotation), no "centrifugal force" is required to explain anything; there is an unbalanced centripetal (center-seeking) force, which accelerates whatever rotates, toward the center.
From the point of view of an outside observer, no centrifugal force is necessary to "explain" anything; the natural tendency of an object is to go ahead in a straight line. A centripetal force is required to keep an object moving in a circle; no counterforce is required to "balance" things, since the object is in fact accelerating. The centrifugal force is introduced for the rotating frame of reference - i.e., from the point of view of somebody who is participating in the rotational movement.
centrifugal force
One big reason is because centrifugal force doesn't explain circular motion, and the other one is because centrifugal force doesn't even exist. I can't think of a way to make an object move in a circle by pulling it from outside of the circle.
No

By definition, a centripetal force is a force towards a central point, exerted on an object following a curved path. It causes an object to follow a curved path, such as an orbit; this is what the gravitational force of the sun does to planets. So it is clearly a centripetal force. A centrifugal force is defined as a force that is exerted away from a center around which an object either rotates or revolves. Literally, in terms of etymology, centrifugal means fleeing the center. Planets orbit the sun because of a balance of centripetal and centrifugal forces. If there were only an attractive force pulling a planet toward the sun, the planet would fall into the sun. And if there were only a centrifugal force pulling planets away from the sun, the planets would fly out of the solar system and into interstellar space. But since these two forces are balanced, planets remain in orbit around the sun. An object on which the forces are balanced travels in a straight line at constant speed. The planets do not travel in straight lines or at constant speeds, because the forces on them are not balanced. The only force on a planet is the centripetal force of gravitational attraction between it and the sun. That single force produces all of the orbits we observe, whether elliptical (repeating) or hyperbolic (not repeating). Those orbits are fairly easy to derive using Newton's formula for gravitational force and direction, plus some geometry and some calculus. Non-furious comments: I avoid writing "centrifugal force", by writing "centrifugal effect". I think that's more or less OK, depending on your "audience". Technically "centrifugal force" is called a "fictitious force". It is actually correct to use it in a rotating frame of reference. Unfortunately, it is often used incorrectly, even by educators. Luckily, the answer to the question was "centripetal force". <<>> The physical processes are that there is a force of gravity pulling the Sun and Earth towards each other. The force acts equally both ways, producing an acceleration in both objects, towards each other, following Netwon's second law: force equals mass times acceleration. The Sun's much greater mass means that its acceleration is small, while the Earth's acceleration towards the Sun keeps it in its elliptical orbit. That is what's happening, so for those who can't remember the difference between centrifugal and centripetal, don't worry, they are not terms used by astronomers.

Centrifugal governors respond to angular velocity. Inertia governors respond to angular acceleration.
you cant.... think about it when ever you spin in a circle you are pulled outwards...
