Answer 1

In onClick listener make a switch case, update menu data and call notifydatasetchanged :

    switch(item)
{

case 0: menu = ....; break;
case 1: menu = ....; break;

...
}

adapter.notifydatasetChanged();

You will also need to update on click listener. Better way, use a new Listview to displaye relative items on click

Take a look at this tutorials, they are implementing expandable listviews. I think that's what you need.
