Stay in southern waters year-round. Stay in the south during autumn and winter, and migrate to northern locations in the spring and summer. Live in the southern waters during summer and move offshore to the mid-ocean during winter. Stay in the north during autumn and winter, and migrate to southern locations in the spring and summer.

Answer 1

I think that it is:
Stay in the south during autumn and winter, and migrate to northern locations in the spring and summer.

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is stay in the south during autumn and winter, and migrate to northern locations in the spring and summer.

Explanation:

Cobia follows a seasonal pattern of migration in the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico. Along the Atlantic coast, they travel towards the south and offshore, that is, in the region of warmer waters at the time of winter and late fall. Thus, the correct statement is that Cobia remains in the south at the time of winter and autumns, and move towards the northern parts in the summer and springs.
