Daphnia, commonly known as water fleas, are crustaceans and are closely related to other members of the class Branchiopoda, such as fairy shrimp and brine shrimp. They also share a broader relationship with other arthropods, including insects, Spiders, and various types of crustaceans. Additionally, Daphnia are part of the larger phylogenetic group Ecdysozoa, which encompasses animals that undergo molting.
Daphnias, also known as water fleas, typically weigh between 0.5 to 1 milligram. Their weight can vary based on factors such as size, age, and environmental conditions.
Organisms that are closely related are located closer to each other on the tree of life. This means they share a more recent common ancestor compared to organisms that are more distantly related. The branching points on the tree of life represent the evolutionary relationships between different organisms.
Systems are a group of connected and related organisms.
To determine which two organisms are most closely related in figure 18-4, one would typically look for the organisms that share the most recent common ancestor on the phylogenetic tree presented. The organisms that branch off from the same node or point in the tree are considered to be more closely related to each other. If you can provide the specific organisms listed in the figure, I could give a more tailored answer.
When two organisms are notably dissimilar, such as a cow and a yeast, we can safely conclude that they are very distantly related. Organisms that are more similar to each other, such as a cow and a deer, are more closely related to each other.

Yes, daphnias exhibit positive phototaxis, meaning they are attracted to light. They typically move towards a light source, as it implies the presence of food or safety.
They are related in that vectors are the organisms carrying the pathogens or virus itself. A virus relies on the vectors to spread to other organisms and reproduce.
Mushrooms are organisms in the fungi kingdom.
By the way they look, (their bone structure, body weight) and DNA too.

In haplodiploid organisms, sisters are related to each other by 75 of their genes. This is because they share the same father but have different mothers.
