Yes, assuming the child has no allergies or potential lactose issues or if your families have lactose issues or food allergies
I highly recommend running it by your pediatrician first though.

After a year it's fine to switch to whole milk. And whole milk is the best milk for them at that age. They need the extra fat to help their little brains develop.

Yes, but my advice is to slowly add milk to the formula little by little getting rid of the formla. This helped my daughter when she was making the transition... It will also keep her system from getting such a shock.. Sometimes the milk fats can be harder to break down.

No. Humans shouldn't drink cow's milk, period. Cow's milk is for calves. Milk can make you sick and possibly kill you, or at least shorten your life. It is definitely not good for humans. It can cause a lot of health problems. I think it should be against the law to sell milk for human consumption. If you will click on the link below and read "Marketing Milk and Disease" by John McDougall, MD", or any of the other links you will probably never drink milk again.

Yes, but they don't need whole milk...1% or 2% is enough unless the baby needs the fat content. Ask the Dr.

Yes, but be quick to switch to 1% if your baby begins looking chubby. Whole milk is high in fat.

both of my kids were switched to whole milk @ 9 months ..you do it when you feel they are ready ..just watch his/her diet when you do it , if they seem to get constipated after wards then you need to water it down some and help them w/ medicine or whatever way you can to use the bathroom until their systems are use to it

Yes, it should be, but these are the types of questions I would highly recommend directing to their doctor.

Yes...usually after the first birthday is when you can switch them over.
