No, the only Jewish ritual that baptism could be linked to is going to the mikvah because a mikvah is a bath. The meaning behind the two are completely unrelated though.
Christian Baptism, as I understand it, is done:1 as a one time sacrament2 as an outward expression of testimony of the believer's acceptance of Jesus' gift of salvation by his sacrificial death on the cross3 with total body immersion is symbolized the death to sin & the rising to a new life in ChristAs such, baptism is completely unrelated to the mikvah. Mikvah is a bath that an individual can go to many times throughout their lives with its purpose being to restore one's spiritual status, mikvah restores your inner pure, innocent self.
There is absolutely no relation between baptism and going to a mikvah.

For the most part it wasn't. OT baptism was to identify with a change...thus a baptism of repentance (a change of mind or thinking), but it was also the standard way one was consecrated or officiated into a new status...read about the uses of the Mikvah and perhaps the tevillah service...everything OT sanctified for God's use or purpose was immersed
No, no one goes to mikvah on a daily basis.
In Protestant churches where infant baptism is practiced, a candle represents the light of Christ entering the world through the newly baptized.
