The diagram below shows the life cycle of a species of large fish called salmon

The provided diagram below presents general information about the

salmon

's life cycle.

Overall

,

this

process consists of 3 steps beginning with little fry growing and becoming smolt,

moreover

, ending with adult

salmon

that lay out its egg.

Initially

, the

salmon

eggs that are situated in the upper river (slow-moving) and among the reeds need approximately 5-6 months to cultivate to the fry.

Subsequently

, the fry that has a length of 3-8cm will live in the lowest river (fast flowing) for probably 4 years. In the second stage, little fries become smolts.

This

smolt has nearly 12-15 cm in length. Afterwards, the smolt that lives in the open sea for roughly 5 years will get into the adult

salmon

.

This

phase of

salmon

is the biggest and oldest one. The length of

this

adult fish is around 70-76cm.

Thereafter

, these fishes will breed under the small stones where their eggs will grow.

To sum up

,

it is clear that

the large fish called

salmon

has 3 phases of cultivating.
