Noether–Enriques using Tsen's lemma
I will assume that $X$ is proper. Then the generic fiber is a smooth projective curve of genus $0$ over the function field $K = k(Z)$ but any such curve can be embedded as a conic in $\mathbb{P}^2_K$ ...

Varieties with few trisecant lines
Assume that $X$ is set theoretically defined by quadrics: $ X = Q_1\cap\dots\cap Q_r$.
If $L$ is a line trisecant to $X$ then $L$ is trisecant to $Q_i$ for all $i$ and hence $L\subset Q_i$ for all $i$....

Varieties with few trisecant lines
A consequence of Gruson-Peskine $k$-secant lemma is the following : if $2N -3n-1>0$ then the trisecants of $X$ do not fill the ambiant space. In particular, if you know that the secant variety of $...

Birational morphisms from DM stacks to their coarse moduli spaces
Yes. For each nontrivial element $g\in G$, the fixed points form a closed set, which must not contain the whole space as then $g$ would act trivially (by reducedness). The complementary open set thus ...
