dissolves
Yes, a sugar cube can dissolve in water. When placed in water, the sugar cube breaks down into individual sugar molecules due to the interactions between the water molecules and the sugar molecules, causing the sugar cube to disappear into the water.
Just think about it. If you leave a tin of water and a tin of sugar outside on a hot day, which one will disappear faster- the water or the sugar?
what is it called when something seems to disappear in a solution
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.
When a sugar cube is placed in water, the water molecules surround the sugar molecules due to their polarity. The water molecules break the bonds holding the sugar molecules together, causing them to separate and disperse throughout the water. This process is called dissolution, where the sugar molecules become evenly distributed in the water, forming a sugar solution.
Salt in water, sugar in tea, sugar in water, drink powder/mix in water, sugar in coffee, etc... I hope I answered your question correctly!

Yes, it is a physical change. The sugar seems to "disappear" in the water, but if you taste the water you will also taste the sugar. So, the basic chemical nature of both sugar and water is unchanged. That is a characteristic of a physical change.
The solid separates down to the molecular level - and they mix with the water molecules. We cannot see molecules with the naked eye !
Recessive Trait
It will just disolve/disappear and become ''normal'' water. =)

a recessive allele
because the sugar dissolves in your tea with the heat
absorption
During nuclear fission and fusion, matter that seems to disappear is actually converted into energy.
