Question: Clarinet plays up on octave without touching the register/octave key?

Basically I can't play G, E, or F (below the staff) for some reason. Sometimes I can hit the note but most of the time the note plays up an octave.

So the G sounds like a D, the E sounds like a C, etc...

I don't know know what to do or how to fix it. My mom suggested new pads being put on in case of leaks so we're ordering some to put them on ourselves.

Side note: she's been playing since 6th grade and I've been playing for four years, so we've both had experience with taking pads on and off, so we know what we're doing.

If it's not the pads any other ideas on what it could be or how to fix it?

Question: Why can't I tongue on the flute anymore?
