Answer:

It completes it's life cycle at the adult stage, where it releases glochida which attaches to the gills of fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Mussels start out as glochida, metamorphosizing into juveniles, to grow into adult mussels. Males release sperm, taken in by females for thier eggs, and the eggs become glochida.
