Answer:

True, Pacific salmon spend part of their life in oceans and part in freshwater rivers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Five species of Pacific salmon thrive in the North Pacific waters of the US and Canada: chinook (also called king), coho, pink, sockeye, and chum salmon. They begin their lives in freshwater streams, lakes, and rivers and migrate to the sea as small fish called smolts.
