The diagrams illustrate the life cycle of the big fish named the salmon.

At the first life stage of the salmon, they are in their eggs located below
the reeds and intertwined small rocks. Usually salmon eggs are laid
under slow moving water flow. Salmon eggs hatch between 5 to 6
months, and salmon babies are called fry which 3-8 cm long. The fry
imigrate to lower river, which is the fast flowing water. They stay there
around 4 years until when they become smolts with the length between
12-15 cm, they move to open sea.
Smolt live in open sea around 5 years in order to become the adult
salmon. After they fully grown up which they are long between 70 to 76
cm, they return back to the upper river where they are first born and
hatched. In there, they lay eggs under the reeds to start their new
generation.
Ultimately, it is clear to see that salmon life cycle illustrated clearly from
eggs to final form.
