A triangular prism has a triangular cross-section. A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross-section.
The horizontal cross section of a triangular pyramid, or tetrahedron, is a shape that varies depending on the height at which the section is made. At different heights, the cross section will be a triangle, with its size and proportions changing as you move up or down the pyramid. If the section is made at the base, the cross section will equal the triangular base itself, while sections taken higher up will be smaller triangles. The shape remains triangular throughout, but its dimensions shrink as you ascend towards the apex.
Answer 1A triangle. Answer 2For a triangular prism, the cross section is a triangle.
Yes the triangular cross-section area is congruent throughput the prism.

A triangular prism has a triangular cross-section. A rectangular prism has a rectangular cross-section.
triangle
Yes, it can.
A triangle forms the cross-section of a triangular prism.
Yes. A cuboid, for example, has triangular cross sections
A solid with a triangular cross section when the cross section is taken parallel to the base could be either a triangular prism, a triangular pyramid, or a triangular frustrum.. I've been sitting here trying to convince myself (without actually bearing down and trying to prove it mathematically) that any cross section of a regular tetrahedron (a special case of triangular pyramid) taken perpendicularly to the base is a triangle, and I THINK this is the case, but as I said I certainly haven't rigorously proven it; I'm just unable to come up with any obvious situation where this is not true.
You cannot have a 2d prism. The 2d cross section will depend on the plane of the cross section.

The statement is true; a parallelogram cannot be a cross section of a triangular prism. The cross sections of a triangular prism are typically triangular or trapezoidal, depending on the orientation of the cut. While a parallelogram can be formed by certain cuts through a prism, in the case of a triangular prism, the specific shape of the bases (triangles) and the lateral faces (rectangles) restrict the cross sections to triangles and trapezoids.
