Please answer both, this is one question, not breaking the Bartleby rules!

Adult Lake Trout and Chinook salmon live in deep, open water and eat small prey fish, but they have very
different reproductive strategies. Lake Trout live up to 10 years and spawn (breed) every year near the lake
shore. Most Lake Trout that live to adulthood eventually die in the open water and their carcass settles to the
lake bottom.
Salmon live 3-4 years and only spawn once. When they spawn, they swim up river in the Fall (sometimes all the
way to MSU, via the Red Cedar River), where they build nests in gravelly river beds, lay their eggs in the nests
and the males fertilize the eggs. Then, both the males and the females die.
