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.
