Wheat is a type of cereal grass. When the wheat grain is harvested the stalks that remain are referred to as straw.
Hay however, is dried grass.
Wheat has a coarser, more robust seed-head with shorter awns than barley does. Barley has longer awns, and is more finer in shape than wheat.
No, barley is a completely different species of grain from wheat, just as rye and oats are.
No. Barley is not wheat at all. Barley and wheat are two different species of cereal grasses belonging to the family Triticeae. Barley does belong in the wheat family, which is, as mentioned, Triticeae, but is of an entirely different species from wheat. The species name for barley is Hordeum vulgare, and the species name for wheat is Triticum aestivum. No doubt either look similar, but both are quite different from the other.
No. Barley and Oats are two different grains. They're both grasses, but other than that are not especially closely related; barley is much more closely related to wheat and rye than it is to oats.
Obviously not. A malting of Wheat will give you malted wheat. A malting of Barley will give you malted barley.

Yes. While most beers and ales use barley as the basis of fermentation. Barley is a member of the wheat family. Hefenwiesen beer is specifically made with wheat and barley, and other beers and ales may also use wheat in varying quantities to bring out different qualities of the brew. Generally all beers and ales contain gluten from either wheat, barley or oats.
No, but they are similar. Wheat has more coarser seed head than barley does. Barley is more smoother up the seed head with longer awns than wheat. Barley and wheat are two different species, though.
Wheat has a more broader and "coarser" seed head than barley, and the tufts/bristles (called awns) are shorter in wheat than barley. Corn or Maize is a much larger cereal grass, with the seeds on a cob enclosed by a sheath. The awns are very floppy and finer than either wheat or corn. Corn can grow up to 10 feet in height whereas barley and wheat only grow up to 4 feet in height. As far as deciphering individual grains, wheat is darker in colouration than barley. Corn is much different shaped than wheat or barley, having a rounded head as opposed to the sharp oval/diamond shape that wheat and barley have.
