The solid that dissolves in a liquid is it solute solution solvent insoluble?

A solid that dissolves in a liquid is called a solute. The term solute means that which is dissolved. A solution is the resulting mixture of solute and solvent. A solvent is that which dissolves. Water is the most common solvent; if sugar dissolves in water, then sugar is the solute and water is the solvent. The term insoluble means does not dissolve, so for example, glass is insoluble in water. That's why you can pour water into a glass and the glass remains intact.

Why does a sugar cube disappears when it dissolves in water?

The "cube" disappears but the "sugar" doesn't. When placed in water the sugar dissolves. Essentially the sugar molecules break off from the solid and hide among the water molecules. If the water were to be removed by evaporation the sugar would precipitate out. if done carefully large sugar crystals will grow in the evaporating solution. The sugar cube will not reform as this is an artificial construct.
