Water can dissolve rocks because the water will slowly soften up the rocks and then after a while the rocks will eventually dissolve, they dissolve because they are in water for a while and then they will wear off and dissolve slowly.

Yes.

No. Water can dissolve certain minerals, such as halite, and can dissolve limestone if it is slightly acidic. However, most rocks will only be broken apart by the action of water, not dissolved, although some components such as the cement in sedimentary rocks may be.

One joint in particular, the synovial joint such as the knee has synovial fluid in the cavity made up of bursae sacs and if burst - then it can swell up. So bones can have fluid in this way.
