::stage 1.Egg:: Every Alaskan salmon starts out as an egg in a gravel bed in a freshwater river or creek. These eggs will 'incubate' for a certain amount of time depending on the type of salmon and the temperature of the water. During this process, the salmon inside the egg develops its eyes, spine and tail. Once this process is complete, the egg will hatch and the salmon begins its life. ::stage 2.Alevin:: Once the egg hatches, the salmon enters the alevin stage. The alevins are still quite small and remain in the gravel beds safe from predators. Salmon in the alevin stage have a noticeable orange yolk sac attached to their bodies that provide nutrients. As the nutrients in the yolk sac are depleted toward the end of the alevin stage, the salmon develop their mouths and small oval-shapes on their sides. After this process, the alevin start to move away from the gravel beds to look for food. ::stage 3.Fry:: The fry stage begins once the salmon leaves the gravel beds where they were born. Salmon in the fry stage have noticeable 'parr' marks that conceal the fish from predators. Although fry stage salmon have a lot of energy, they typically stay in slower moving waters and feed on plankton and insect larvae. How long a salmon stays in the fry stage depends on the species - some are only there for a short time while others like the King will stay for up to a year. ::stage 4.Smolt:: Once the 'parr' marks start wearing away and the salmon starts moving toward saltwater, it enters the smolt stage. Fish in this smolt stage are growing quite rapidly. Smolts typically stay in the brackish waters at the mouth of a river. Again, how long Smolts stay in this stage and how big they are varies by species. Once the Smolts reaches a certain size, they are ready to migrate into the open ocean and begin their adult life. ::stage 5.Adult:: Salmon are considered 'adults' when they complete the migration from freshwater to saltwater. The adults will feed in the open-ocean for a certain length of time depending on the species. King salmon for example will stay in the ocean for 6 years whereas Pink salmon will stay for about two before heading back to freshwater to spawn. ::stage 6.Spawner:: At a certain point, the salmon will begin migrating back to freshwater where they enter the spawner stage. Salmon in the spawner stage undergo tremendous physical changes, including their color. Sockeye, King and Silver salmon for example will change from a silvery greyish color to maroon or red. The jaws of male salmon will also change to a hook shape, which is known as a 'kype'. Pink and Sockeye males will also develop a defined hump on their back. Interestingly, salmon in the spawner stage will migrate back to almost the same exact spot where they were born. Species like the Chum salmon will migrate up to 2000 miles to spawn! The distance they go depends on the species and the river. Upon reaching the gravel beds, the females will lay their eggs in the gravel while the males fertilize them with something called 'milt'. This spawning 'run' occurs during the summer months and provides the best fishing opportunities. However, determining the exact time this occurs isn't easy. In most Alaskan rivers, the King salmon arrive first, then the Sockeye, Pinks, Chums and Silver in that order. ::stage 7.Post-spawn:: If a salmon makes it to the spawning grounds without getting caught or eaten by a predator, they will complete the breeding process as described in number 6. Once this process is over, the adult salmon die off and therefore complete the life cycle. | During post-spawn stage does a salmon complete the migration from freshwater to saltwater. | not_entailment | lookup |

Interestingly, salmon in the spawner stage will migrate back to almost the same exact spot where they were born. Species like the Chum salmon will migrate up to 2000 miles to spawn! The distance they go depends on the species and the river. Upon reaching the gravel beds, the females will lay their eggs in the gravel while the males fertilize them with something called 'milt'. This spawning 'run' occurs during the summer months and provides the best fishing opportunities. However, determining the exact time this occurs isn't easy. In most Alaskan rivers, the King salmon arrive first, then the Sockeye, Pinks, Chums and Silver in that order. ::stage 7.Post-spawn:: If a salmon makes it to the spawning grounds without getting caught or eaten by a predator, they will complete the breeding process as described in number 6. Once this process is over, the adult salmon die off and therefore complete the life cycle. | At alevin stage salmon stage do they have a noticeable orange yolk sac attached to their bodies. | entailment | lookup |
::stage 1.Egg:: Every Alaskan salmon starts out as an egg in a gravel bed in a freshwater river or creek. These eggs will 'incubate' for a certain amount of time depending on the type of salmon and the temperature of the water. During this process, the salmon inside the egg develops its eyes, spine and tail. Once this process is complete, the egg will hatch and the salmon begins its life. ::stage 2.Alevin:: Once the egg hatches, the salmon enters the alevin stage. The alevins are still quite small and remain in the gravel beds safe from predators. Salmon in the alevin stage have a noticeable orange yolk sac attached to their bodies that provide nutrients. As the nutrients in the yolk sac are depleted toward the end of the alevin stage, the salmon develop their mouths and small oval-shapes on their sides. After this process, the alevin start to move away from the gravel beds to look for food. ::stage 3.Fry:: The fry stage begins once the salmon leaves the gravel beds where they were born. Salmon in the fry stage have noticeable 'parr' marks that conceal the fish from predators. Although fry stage salmon have a lot of energy, they typically stay in slower moving waters and feed on plankton and insect larvae. How long a salmon stays in the fry stage depends on the species - some are only there for a short time while others like the King will stay for up to a year. ::stage 4.Smolt:: Once the 'parr' marks start wearing away and the salmon starts moving toward saltwater, it enters the smolt stage. Fish in this smolt stage are growing quite rapidly. Smolts typically stay in the brackish waters at the mouth of a river. Again, how long Smolts stay in this stage and how big they are varies by species. Once the Smolts reaches a certain size, they are ready to migrate into the open ocean and begin their adult life. ::stage 5.Adult:: Salmon are considered 'adults' when they complete the migration from freshwater to saltwater. The adults will feed in the open-ocean for a certain length of time depending on the species. King salmon for example will stay in the ocean for 6 years whereas Pink salmon will stay for about two before heading back to freshwater to spawn. ::stage 6.Spawner:: At a certain point, the salmon will begin migrating back to freshwater where they enter the spawner stage.

::stage Egg:: When it's time for a mother African goliath beetle to lay her eggs, she digs a hole in the rich dirt of the rainforest. But unlike your parents, the mother African goliath beetle doesn't stick around to take care of the eggs. It can take the eggs up to two weeks to hatch underground.

But the larva don't need to see at this point because they will live underground in the dark for several months. The larvae eat and grow, getting bigger and bigger.

::stage Egg:: When it's time for a mother African goliath beetle to lay her eggs, she digs a hole in the rich dirt of the rainforest. But unlike your parents, the mother African goliath beetle doesn't stick around to take care of the eggs. It can take the eggs up to two weeks to hatch underground.

But the larva don't need to see at this point because they will live underground in the dark for several months. The larvae eat and grow, getting bigger and bigger. The larva are at their heaviest during this stage and can weigh about one quarter of a pound, which is around the same as twenty quarters! And African goliath beetle larvae can grow to be around five inches long, too - that's a little longer than a soda can. ::stage Pupae:: After the larvae have finished growing, they dive deeper underground and use the soil and their spit to make a thin case, like a butterfly makes a cocoon. The larva become pupae (pronounced PEW-pee) and will rest inside their case for several months as their bodies change and grow long legs, wings and a hard outer shell called an exoskeleton.

::stage Egg:: The development of marine finfish eggs is temperature dependent among all teleost (bony fish). Once the egg is fertilized, the embryo will form inside the hardened egg. The embryo will start to develop organs, and eventually eyespots and the tail can be seen inside the egg. The embryo will develop pigmentation spots along the body. The tail will wrap around the egg to the head. If the species lives in warmer waters, the embryo will hatch more quickly. Colder water species hatch slowly, and the eyes and pigmentation will be fully developed at hatching. The tail of the embryo will break out of the shell and the embryo becomes a free-swimming larva. ::stage Larva:: Once the fish is hatched, it is known as a larva. Newly hatched larvae have a yolk sac that is a source of nutrition for the larvae. Larvae absorb their yolk sac for several days until they are developed enough to feed on live prey. Yolk sac larvae can survive for 2-4 days by feeding off their yolk sac food supply. This is called endogenous feeding. The length of the yolk sac period for larvae is dependent on the culture temperature and the species of fish. The warmer the water, the faster the fish will use up their yolk reserves. Once the larvae mouth has formed and the eyes are partially developed, the larvae can be offered a live feed. Feeding on organisms or particles in the water column is called exogenousfeeding. Live feed is essential to the early stages of developing larvae. Because their eyes are underdeveloped at hatch, the larvae need to be offered a feed that is moving around to help stimulate a feeding response. When the larvae hatch, they have a finfold around their whole body that looks like an outline when observed under a microscope. This finfold will eventually develop into fins, beginning with the process of metamorphosis. ::stage Juvenile:: Metamorphosis is the process that signifies the end of the larval stage. After metamorphosis, the fish are considered juveniles and will acquire characteristics of an adult fish: body features, coloration, fins, etc. Metamorphosis also denotes full organ development; it occurs at different times for different types of fish. For example, some fish will metamorphose in 20 days, whereas some will not go through the process until 4 months of age. Metamorphosis is a very stressful time for the fish, which means there is a point of high mortality, known as a bottleneck. The larvae are given a different type of feed during this period because they are now juvenile fish. Weaning fish to a new diet is also a stressful part of the culture process. Juveniles are usually resistant to stress (temperature, water quality, etc.) over time. As long as the culture environment remains healthy, the fish should thrive on dry feed and show significant growth rates. Juveniles are not considered adults until they become sexually mature.

Because their eyes are underdeveloped at hatch, the larvae need to be offered a feed that is moving around to help stimulate a feeding response. When the larvae hatch, they have a finfold around their whole body that looks like an outline when observed under a microscope. This finfold will eventually develop into fins, beginning with the process of metamorphosis. ::stage Juvenile:: Metamorphosis is the process that signifies the end of the larval stage. After metamorphosis, the fish are considered juveniles and will acquire characteristics of an adult fish: body features, coloration, fins, etc. Metamorphosis also denotes full organ development; it occurs at different times for different types of fish. For example, some fish will metamorphose in 20 days, whereas some will not go through the process until 4 months of age. Metamorphosis is a very stressful time for the fish, which means there is a point of high mortality, known as a bottleneck. The larvae are given a different type of feed during this period because they are now juvenile fish. Weaning fish to a new diet is also a stressful part of the culture process. Juveniles are usually resistant to stress (temperature, water quality, etc.) over time. As long as the culture environment remains healthy, the fish should thrive on dry feed and show significant growth rates. Juveniles are not considered adults until they become sexually mature.

::stage Egg:: The development of marine finfish eggs is temperature dependent among all teleost (bony fish). Once the egg is fertilized, the embryo will form inside the hardened egg. The embryo will start to develop organs, and eventually eyespots and the tail can be seen inside the egg. The embryo will develop pigmentation spots along the body. The tail will wrap around the egg to the head. If the species lives in warmer waters, the embryo will hatch more quickly. Colder water species hatch slowly, and the eyes and pigmentation will be fully developed at hatching. The tail of the embryo will break out of the shell and the embryo becomes a free-swimming larva. ::stage Larva:: Once the fish is hatched, it is known as a larva. Newly hatched larvae have a yolk sac that is a source of nutrition for the larvae. Larvae absorb their yolk sac for several days until they are developed enough to feed on live prey. Yolk sac larvae can survive for 2-4 days by feeding off their yolk sac food supply. This is called endogenous feeding. The length of the yolk sac period for larvae is dependent on the culture temperature and the species of fish. The warmer the water, the faster the fish will use up their yolk reserves.

And African goliath beetle larvae can grow to be around five inches long, too - that's a little longer than a soda can. ::stage Pupae:: After the larvae have finished growing, they dive deeper underground and use the soil and their spit to make a thin case, like a butterfly makes a cocoon. The larva become pupae (pronounced PEW-pee) and will rest inside their case for several months as their bodies change and grow long legs, wings and a hard outer shell called an exoskeleton.

But unlike your parents, the mother African goliath beetle doesn't stick around to take care of the eggs. It can take the eggs up to two weeks to hatch underground. At this point, wiggly larvae start to appear. ::stage Larvae:: African goliath beetle larvae (pronounced lar-VEE) look like fat, squishy worms with no eyes. But the larva don't need to see at this point because they will live underground in the dark for several months. The larvae eat and grow, getting bigger and bigger. The larva are at their heaviest during this stage and can weigh about one quarter of a pound, which is around the same as twenty quarters! And African goliath beetle larvae can grow to be around five inches long, too - that's a little longer than a soda can. ::stage Pupae:: After the larvae have finished growing, they dive deeper underground and use the soil and their spit to make a thin case, like a butterfly makes a cocoon. The larva become pupae (pronounced PEW-pee) and will rest inside their case for several months as their bodies change and grow long legs, wings and a hard outer shell called an exoskeleton. Once the rainy season starts and enough water drips through the soil to reach the now fully grown African goliath beetles, they crawl out of their cases in the soil and fly off. ::stage Adult:: Once they pop out of the ground and take off, adult African goliath beetles look for mates. After a mother beetle has found a partner and is ready to lay her eggs, she digs a hole in the ground and the whole life cycle starts all over again. | Up to 5 inches is the maximum length of African goliath beetle larvae. | entailment | lookup |
