Mary Queen of the Scots was beheaded for basically being a Catholic and plotting to kill her Protestant sister Queen Elizabeth I. Being a Catholic in Protestant England was not the best thing. The kings' subjects should be the same religion as the king himself.

What was the bablington plot?
I think you mean the babington plot; a plot in 1586 organized to remove Elizabeth I from power and replace her with Mary Stuart, known as Mary Queen of Scots. The plot involved Catholic support and was uncovered largely by the work of Francis Walsingham, Elizabeth I's spymaster. The plot led to the execution of Mary Stuart in 1587, as Elizabeth finally had clear proof that mary had plotted against her. It can be seen as a (tenuous) cause of the Spanish Armada in 1588.

Who was the colonial govenor for Roanoke?
The colonial governor of Roanoke was John White, who led the second expedition to the island in 1587. He was responsible for establishing the Roanoke Colony, which became known as the "Lost Colony" after he returned to England for supplies and found the settlement abandoned upon his return in 1590. White's leadership and subsequent search for the colonists became significant elements of the colony's mysterious history.
What happened to the colony in America which Walter Raleigh paid for?
Nobody knows for sure. In 1587 117 men, women and boys (no girls) came to Roanoke Island in what is now North Carolina. In August of that year Governor John White returned to England for supplies. He did not return until 1590 by which time his colonists had left the settlement, leaving only two ambiguous clues as to their intended destination. It is entirely possible that the group fractured into smaller groups - some may have tried to sail back to England, some headed north for the Chesapeake Bay (their original intended destination), some headed south to join friendly native American groups, some headed west into the mainland. Much later there were reports from William Strachey that white people had been living with local native American groups around the Chesapeake. Most of the people had been killed by Powhatan (or his people) and the few who escaped were ultimately caught and enslaved.

Why did the protestants want to use Mary queen of Scots for?
Protestants sought to use Mary, Queen of Scots, as a pawn in their political struggles against Catholicism and the Catholic monarchy. They aimed to undermine her claim to the English throne, as her legitimacy was seen as a threat to Protestant rule under Elizabeth I. By promoting Mary as a legitimate contender, Protestants hoped to rally support for their cause and weaken Catholic influence in England and Scotland. Additionally, her execution in 1587 galvanized Protestant sentiment against Catholicism, furthering the Protestant cause.

Why wasn't Mary Stuart queen of England?
Mary Stuart, also known as Mary Queen of Scots, was not queen of England primarily due to her claim being contested and her political circumstances. Although she was a legitimate heir to the English throne through her grandmother, Margaret Tudor, tensions between Catholics and Protestants and her rivalry with Elizabeth I led to political opposition. After being implicated in plots against Elizabeth, Mary was imprisoned for nearly 19 years before her execution in 1587, effectively ending her claim to the English throne.
