How many 40 lb bags of topsoil are on a pallet?
Generally speaking, weight doesn't equate to volume. Off the top of my head, I would say it would take about 50 bags to equal 1 cubic yard. Also, to check this, a yard of soil weighs about 1 ton (2000 lbs). So if you need 7 yards, I would have a local nursery, or supply house deliver the 7 yards of topsoil. In W. PA we pay about $22/yd delivered. Compare this to $2 - $3/bag: $750 - $1150 plus loading & unloading your truck (or car) and about 25 trips to the hardware (or wal-mart-boo).
Which contains more humans topsoil or subsoil?
by the way there are sunlight in human and in soil. ************ Topsoil will contain more humus (notice the spelling!) than subsoil.

Or even solid bedrock, with a thin layer of topsoil on top - not really suitable for growing deep rooted plants.
How thick should top soil be?

That depends upon how deep the soil bed is and how much moisture is in the topsoil. But here are some ballpark numbers for you: A yard of soil will cover a 10' by 10' area to a depth of three inches.
