Yes. A police officer is able to act on any illegal activities that he may see. So in your case yes. This doesnt happen much because an off duty cop is on break and littering is a pity crime i dont see why he/she would intervene and waste his/her time.
A plain clothes policeman is a law enforcement officer who does his job out of uniform. Plain clothes policemen are often a part of an undercover operation.
I believe it refers to the officer's squad car. Stating that the car he/she pulled you over in was a marked car. Making it obvious that it was a police officer. Unlike an unmarked police car that would probably be driven by an undercover or plain clothes officer.
Absolutely not ! No matter which country you're in - if the officer is off-duty - they're just another civilian, with no more jurisdiction to issue parking tickets than you or I. However they can make a note of your violation and either pass your details on or process your violation citation/ticket when they are back on duty.

If the officer does not appear when required, the citation is usually dismissed. But the officer is not always required.
The officer dressed in civilian clothing. Civilian life was difficult for a retired Army officer to adjust to. The Marine was dating a civilian. The civilian did not understand military time.
Every Day Carry.....such as the equipment that police officer carry everyday or everyday offduty...basically there normal carry package of equipment

In an odd sense, almost every officer is a civilian before receiving a commission. Only someone elevated from the ranks and already in the service is not a civilian before commissioning.
There are several instances when a hand salute should be rendered. One instance is when a recognized person entitled by grade is met or seen. This is not appropriate in public conveyances or public places.
Yes they can.
No, a civilian cannot legally issue a ticket to a police officer. Only authorized law enforcement officers have the authority to issue tickets or citations.
Technically, yes. The actual definition of the term civilian is "any person who is not a member of the armed forces." However, the term is often used to mean someone who is not a police officer, but that is a colloquial use of the term.
An officer in the Army can become a police officer if they meet the same requirements as anyone else. The Army officer would have to leave active duty and either move entirely into civilian life or continue in the Army Reserves or National Guard to accept a position as a civilian police officer.
If the civilian is not in the officers chain of command the it is not possible to be insubordinate. If the civilian is in the chain of command then the process is exactly the same as insubordination to any other superior.
Most detention officers have peace officer powers while they are on duty. If the detention officer was on duty, he could serve an arrest warrant.
The civilian equivalent would be more in line with their occupation than their rank. Warrant Officers tend to be technicians/specialists in a certain field.
