1. Why is primary key needed in Transactional replication?

The reason is in the subscriber, rows are updated/deleted one-by-one using primary key. 

For example:

If you delete 100 rows in the publisher using a single DELETE statement, in the subscriber 100 DELETE statements would be executed.

— on publisher

DELETE FROM dbo.tbAddress WHERE City = ‘LONDON’

— on subscriber

DELETE FROM dbo.tbAddress WHERE pk = @pk
