All Sliver creatures have defender.
All Slivers have "When this permanent enters, draw a card."
"It triggers the hive's period of aetheric fertility—a time when even feeding is a lower priority than reproduction."

The controller of the Sliver that enters the battlefield draws a card, not necessarily the controller of Dormant Sliver.

The last ability Dormant Sliver grants itself triggers when it enters the battlefield.

If the creature type of a Sliver changes so it's no longer a Sliver, it will no longer be affected by its own ability. Its ability will continue to affect other Sliver creatures.

Abilities that Slivers grant, as well as power/toughness boosts, are cumulative. However, for some abilities, like flying, having more than one instance of the ability doesn't provide any additional benefit.
