A tardigrade is a microscopic, water-dwelling organism known for its ability to survive extreme conditions including high pressure, temperature, and radiation. They can retract their legs and go into a state of suspended animation called cryptobiosis to survive harsh environments.
I've read they are transparent, but cannot verify this.
The key to the tardigrade (water bears) survival is its cryptopic stage; because without this, many abilities would be taken away, such as a high immunity to radiation. The Tardigrade is almost dead in the cryptobiotic stage, other than the fact that it can revive itself from this state. Because there is no water in the body of the Tardigrade while in a cryptobiotic state to aid metabolism, the Tardigrade cannot go through any physical changes (from self) while dehydrated.
Nothing. They are too small to be affected.
A tardigrade is an invertebrate. These microscopic creatures belong to the phylum Tardigrada and are known for their resilience, able to survive extreme conditions. Unlike vertebrates, which have a backbone, tardigrades lack this structure and are instead characterized by their segmented bodies and eight legs.

This is what is called the waterbear. moss piglet or Tardigrade. We have found fossils from 530 millions years ago.
To locate a tardigrade in its natural habitat, one can search in moist environments such as moss, lichen, soil, or leaf litter. Tardigrades are microscopic organisms that can survive in extreme conditions, so they can be found in a variety of habitats around the world. Using a microscope and a water sample from the habitat can help in spotting these tiny creatures.
