Question

Where do Pacific salmon spawn?
1)in brackish waters of the estuaries
2)in the middle of the Pacific, near Hawaii
3)in freshwater rivers and streams
4)in large aggregates in the surface waters where hatching larvae will have plenty of food available

Answer 1

Pacific salmon primarily spawn **in freshwater rivers and streams** (option 3). After hatching, they typically migrate to the ocean, where they mature before returning to their natal freshwater habitats to spawn.
