What is the intent of your question?
my sister has full custody of her daughter, however, the father has visitation rights. He calims that as the non custodial parent there's a law that states that he should be the parent to keep her passport under his possession. Can you please confirm if that is accurate.
The non-custodial parent can go to court and request custody of the children. A judge will decide which parent should be awarded custody of the children. The circumstances under which the children are currently living, combined with the reason(s) they are not living with you will be a big factor in whether or not you get to keep custody of the children.
same as a father under the same conditions. What the court orders say.
Too complicated to answer simply. See an attorney that does child custody and family law.
Since this would come under the law as regards parental abduction, blackmail is not even an issue. Besides, you don't have that power, the court does.
Absolutely. A minor child cannot be taken legally from the U.S. without a valid passport. The custodial parent or guardian must, under oath, in person agree to allow the child to accompany the non custodial parent before a passport is issued. Likewise, depending upon the custodial order, the custodial parent may need the non custodial parent to present a sworn affidavit that he or she is allowing the minor to obtain a passport and travel outside of the U.S.
Only if a part of the custody order, but it's a two way street.

yes they can, but only if they go through family court with their parents, that way the parents and the judge will decide on visiting rights for either parent if one is the custodial parent, if it is joint custody the parents have equal rights in visitation.
The permission of both parents is necessary unless the non-custodial parent has relinquished all rights.
That would all depend upon what state you are in, what are the circumstances surrounding the adoption. Has the parental rights of natural parents been terminated? In Oklahoma if the child is under the age of 18, a natural parent has to be notified of adoption proceedings.
