The spare wheel is not part fo the MoT.
You don't legally need a spare wheel to take the car on the road, lots of modern cars are supplied with either a space saver tyre, or no spare wheels and a can of foam to seal a puncture

No. If the spare isn't present they cannot fail the car. You are not obliged to carry a spare, even though it was provided with the car. Many cars do not have spare wheels these days, only a can of crud to re-inflate which buggers up a previously repairable tyre, as it happens.

No, a car doesn't need a spare wheel for an MOT and even if there is one there that's bald it'll only be an advisory, if that.

No but if you do have a spare it must be in the same good condition as the rest of your tyres or it will fail.
