Answer to Question 1

The whale is a seasonal breeder. It migrates to the equator for mating. The female carries her young for 10 to
12 months and will nurse it for 7 months after birth. It travels in herds.



Answer to Question 2

ShrimpThe life cycle of the shrimp involves the female laying the eggs in the ocean, the young moving close
to shore to live, and at 5 to 7 months old, moving back to deep water for breeding.
 OysterThe oyster sprays her eggs in the water. The young oyster or spat hatches within 10 hours where it
will attach to a rock. It stays its entire life on the same rock.
 LobsterThe lobster carries her eggs under her tail. Every 2 years, she lays her eggs by shaking them from
her tail. The young lobster drifts for 3 to 5 weeks before it sinks to the ocean floor to spend the rest of its life.
