If you're an immediate relative of a US citizen and stay outside US through consular processing you can become a permanent resident. When USCIS works with the Department of State to issue a visa on an approved Form I-130 petition when a visa is available its referred to as Consular processing. You may then travel on the visa and will officially become a permanent resident when admitted at a US port of entry.
Yes, a green card holder can work in Canada, but they must obtain a work permit or visa to do so legally.

Yes, a person who marries a green card holder may be eligible to apply for a work permit through the marriage-based green card process.
Being a green card holder can affect marriage and immigration status by allowing the holder to sponsor their spouse for a green card, which can lead to permanent residency for the spouse. This can provide the spouse with legal status in the United States and the ability to work and live in the country.
As a green card holder staying in US you have the rights to live and work there. Apart from this you can also petition for your close relatives using Form I-130 for them to get green card. Above all after five years of being a green card holder if you are eligible you can apply for US citizenship.
You can marry the green card holder but that does not affect your ability to work. Your right to work is completely tied to your OPT and then your H1B. If there is no gap between the end of your OPT and start of H1B then you can carry on working. If your OPT ends then you have to stop working and can not start work again until you have your H1B. Your marriage to a green card holder is irrelevant - you must have your own visa to stay in the USA.
Marriage to a green card holder can potentially help you obtain a green card through a process called "family-based immigration." This can lead to a change in your immigration status, allowing you to live and work in the United States as a lawful permanent resident.
Using the green card and passport you can travel abroad provided the stay outside US is for a maximum period of 180 days. If you plan to stay for more period of time you should file for reentry permit which is valid for 2 years to reenter US using immigration form I-131 travel document. After a year as a green card holder if for work or any purpose you need to stay outside US you can preserve your residence in US for naturalization purposes later.
As a green card holder you are legally a bound to the laws of that country you are residing in. For example if you vomit murder in the USA you are bound to the US laws. A green card means you are legally aloud to work and live in that country but also you have to pay taxes and abide to that countries laws. So just because someone is a green card holder doesn't mean he will be prosecuted differently. It cold hurt someone though if that persona tries to file for citizenship of that country.
Yes but it becomes a problem during naturalization. Green card in US is mainly for a person to stay and work in US permanently and so its supposed to be maintained and renewed every 10 years. Also the green card holder would have to apply for a reentry permit which is valid only for 2 years before leaving US in case he intends to work abroad. New reentry permit is required if the stay is for more than 2 years. Main eligibility criteria for applying for US citizenship is to have stayed in US as a green card holder for minimum 5 years prior to filing the Form N-400. In case green card holder plans to work abroad its important to file Form N-470 to preserve residence in US for naturalization purposes.
If you marry a green card holder, you may be eligible to apply for a green card yourself through a process called "family-based immigration." This could allow you to live and work in the United States permanently. However, there may be certain requirements and restrictions to consider, so it's important to consult with an immigration attorney for guidance.
