Just as a few examples :
* One can choose between using HttpSession and a SFSB to maintain state
* One can choose between using several technologies to persist the domain objects.
* One can choose between extracting functionality into a separate component to improve scalability or not
* One can ....
For all of these example tradeoffs are relevant and a choice has to be made.
Usually I specifiy all the tradeoffs, which will help the developers understand why a choice has been made, but it is quite a lot of work to do.

I therefore would like to know if marks are allocated to specifying the tradeoffs related to a choice?

While marks don't go to that per se, it shows the grader you were thinking about it. It also helps you be prepared for part 3.
