Yes, shrimp and squid are related in that they both belong to the phylum Mollusca and are classified as invertebrates. However, shrimp are crustaceans, which are part of the class Malacostraca, while squid belong to the class Cephalopoda. Despite their differences in classification and Biology, they share some common features, such as living in aquatic environments and having a similar body structure adapted for swimming.
