Answer 1

pass your current location in this function where you have placed your marker.

private void moveToCurrentLocation(LatLng currentLocation)
{   
    googleMap.moveCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLngZoom(currentLocation,15));
    // Zoom in, animating the camera.
    googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomIn());
    // Zoom out to zoom level 10, animating with a duration of 2 seconds.
    googleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.zoomTo(15), 2000, null);


}

Answer 2

Provide marker position.

private void pointToPosition(LatLng position) {
    //Build camera position
    CameraPosition cameraPosition = new CameraPosition.Builder()
            .target(position)
            .zoom(17).build();
    //Zoom in and animate the camera.
    mGoogleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newCameraPosition(cameraPosition));
}
