Some Lampreys are anadromous from their lake and they migrate up rivers to spawn.

Explanation:

If the adult fish live in the sea and migrate into fresh water to spawn is known as anadromous and if the adult fish live in fresh water and migrate into salt water to spawn is known as catadromous.

An anadromous fish like salmon, smelt,shad spends most of their life in the sea and returns to fresh water to spawn. A catadromous fish like eels lives in fresh water and enters salt water to spawn.

Sea lamprey brings nutrients into fresh water and provide a source of food for various birds, fish, mammals and people. The newly transformed  lamprey can live only for few months in fresh water .

The females deposit a large number of eggs in nest made by males in the streams with strong current. Spawning is done by death of the adults

A student collects a sample of water from a pond near her home. She
son4ous [18]

Answer:

A. Each organism had a different parent that passed on a set of unique genetic instructions.

Explanation:

Organisms can either be single-celled or multicellular. According to this question, a student collects a sample of water from a pond near her home. She then examines a drop of the water under a microscope and noticed it contains four very differently shaped single-celled organisms.

The single-celled organisms are of different shapes because they are from different parents, which passed on a set of unique genetic instructions via their genes to them. Organisms of the same species from the same parent will possess the same shape because they contain same gene which makes them look and behave similar.

However, in this case, the four different shaped single-celled organisms are of DIFFERENT SPECIES and hence, contain individual unique genes that makes them so
