It is the only way you can guarantee what variety your fruit tree will be.
Importance of climate in fruit tree production
Many plants require fruit production to reproduce
Grafting is a horticultural technique that joins two woody plants together. Frequently used for fruit trees, this method inserts a twig or branch from one tree into an opening on the trunk of another and binds them together. When the two grow connected, the fruit on that branch will be that of the original tree from which it came.
Fruit size increased and there is lesser drops in flowers

I don't know. Hope it helped!
Yes. It is forbidden to create a hybrid fruit by grafting a tree of one species onto stock of another; but the resulting fruit is permitted, and certainly trees propagated from cuttings of the grafted tree, or from seeds of its fruit, are permitted. Hybridising in the lab, by means of gene grafting, is permitted.

Because grafting allows better plants with more fruit. Apple trees are the most commonly grafted plants. The main trunk gives solid support. The graft is usually a stock that produces more fruit and, the tree can be pruned shorted for easier harvest.
If you plan on grafting branches of it they need to be grafted to a root stock. The purpose of grafting branches of a fruit tree to a root stock is to propagate a well fruited tree without changing the fruit from the expected result. Unfortunately, planting fruit seeds from well defined fruit does not necessarily give uniformity to the fruit and with several years given for propagation a whole generation of fruit could turn out badly, if they weren't grafted to a root stock, but grown from seed. Genetically the tree gained from a successful grafting is a clone of the tree it came from and the fruit will bear exactly the same as the parent. The same cannot be said of one grown from seed.
