Yes, it's essentially not too different from natural fat.
No, they will shrink and give off a burnt strawberry smell.

yes
They will melt since they are made mostly of wax.
Wax will melt in boiling water. You do not want to expose wax directly to a flame, of course, because it will catch fire.
The intermolecular forces holding the wax together break causing it to melt.

I would advice against using Wax paper in a microwave. The wax would easily melt when heated up by the waves. Wax would blend in with the food and then you eat it. Not sure if eating wax is harmful in any way, but I imagine there being certain additives to it like anti fungal chemicals. Probably not very harmful in small quantities but still.. Plastic wrap, if choosing the right type, does not give off chemicals to the food.
If the package says it is microwaveable....some of the older packages were not.
Wax.
wax (I think).

Only put Microwave safe plastic in the microwave so it wont melt. Microwaves break glass because plastic is more solid
if you want it to melt then yes, but otherwise no No it will melt. --- There are special kinds of plastic wrap that can be used in a microwave. However, I often use normal plastic wrap to cover up a bowl with soup when warming it up in a microwave and it does not melt at all. It gets a little soft but that's it.
