Two characters are held down as creatures are allowed to crawl in their ears, which then has the effect of keeping them psychologically captive. Kirk is restrained when trying to reach Spock in part of the engine room.

It is implied that crew members die after enemy fire damages the ship and they scramble to get individual breathing equipment. You can hear someone scream that they need air.

In addition to the climactic scene described in another comment, there's an earlier scene where a character gives his life to prevent Kirk being shot on Khan's orders.

No but a female character is called "mister" quite a few times, as a military title or sign of respect.
