Egg cases are laid on seaweed, other egg cases or whatever else is nearby. Squid adults generally die after spawning - the young hatch as miniature adults. Female squid can lay up to 70,000 eggs!
However the majority of these eggs are eaten by predatory animals, as are the hatched squid themselves. Most predation of the newly hatched animals occurs within the first few days of hatching.
By contrast, octopus generally guard their eggs, and don't die immediately after spawning. But Squid "live hard and die young", octopus have a much quieter, and longer life. Squid though live only about a year, thus their mating is a once in a lifetime event. There are though a few species that manage two matings in a lifetime.
Squids reproduce by mating in large groups, and attach their egg capsules to the ocean floor or to seaweed. They live in all types of areas e.g. at a jetty, bay, lake and even deep sea. And they live between 18 and 24 months.

inherited traits :]
My name means "kernel of a nut," and I contain DNA. I pass on traits to new cells in a systematic way.
Organisms pass down their DNA, their genetic code, down to their offspring during reproduction. This is what defines the offspring make up and determines what genetic conditions will be passed on to them.
Genetics Genes are the DNA that pass our hereditary traits from generation to generation
yes
They pass on traits. There are recessive traits and dominant traits. The dominant trait is normally the one that overpowers recessive

No.
heredity
Humans only pass traits, sex-linked or not, to their offspring. There is no way to pass a trait to anyone except offspring unless through gene implant.
