NL2 Folding 2 Pairs on turn a mistake?

Blinds: $0.01/$0.02 (6 Players) BN: $2.02 (Hero)
SB: $3.01
BB: $2.82
UTG: $2.53
MP: $2.05
CO: $2.18
Preflop ($0.03) Hero is BN with Q K
3 folds, Hero raises to $0.06, SB calls $0.05, BB folds
Flop ($0.14) 2 A K
SB checks, Hero bets $0.05, SB calls $0.05
I think Cbet here is ok. Maybe a bit bigger like 0.07 or 0.08 but overall ok.
Turn ($0.24) 2 A K Q
SB checks, Hero bets $0.08, SB raises to $0.47, Hero folds
Final Pot SB wins $0.39
Rake is $0.01

So PF and on Flop I think overall is fine. Maybe the Cbet could have been bigger like 0.07-0.09 but not a huge deal.

On the turn I think the sizing is bad. I think I really need to bet bigger here like 2/3Pot. Checking is probably not ideal, giving up too much value with my 2pairs here.

When he raised, I just dont know what I am beating and his raise his huge!
He called PF, so he should not have too many AA,KK,QQ,AK. The only options here in my mind are AQ, JT and maybe on the crazy side 22. So I decided to fold... Do you think it was the right move?

Is it possbile Jc9c or Tc9c or any AcXc combo check/raising here?

Can be small or check flop, betting 2/3 is alright too but it is more advance and mergy strategy. If you aren't familiar with it, likely it wont turn out great for you.
And right, sizing up turn and fold vs raise seems good as you sized up. Under bluffed spot, no point to make calldowns with bottom part of your range
