Yes. Generally sand is mostly silica.
?? Sand IS natural! It's the weathering product of hard, principally igneous, rocks or of sandstone breaking down into its constituent materials; and is primarily grains of silica (quartz).
Silica sand has glass in it, and it is not to be used in pool filters. You will get the best results when using pool sand.
Is silica from silicon sand? I am allergic to silocon.
No. Generally, sand is mostly made of silica, but sand varies somewhat but it does vary in composition. Furthermore, silica is found in a lot of materials other than sand.
Yes. This can be inferred by the fact that many medicine bottles contain packages of silica bead in them with warnings saying "do not eat" "Do not eat" does NOT translate to "poisonous". Silica is Silicon dioxide, equivalent to so much sand. Sand is not toxic. The correct answer is that silica is NOT toxic to humans.
Glass is formed from sand or silica.
Sand usually contains abundant silica, but it generally is not pure silica.

Cheese should not (and does not normally) contain silica.
