In general, freshwater teleosts lay adhesive eggs that remain in one place until they hatch, whereas marine teleosts release free-floating eggs that are carried away by water currents.
 
  (There are exceptions to that generalization in both freshwater and marine forms.) What can you infer about differences in the biology of newly hatched freshwater and marine teleosts on the basis of that difference in their reproduction?

The body form and feeding modes of young freshwater teleosts are generally like those of adults of their species, allowing for the difference in body size. In contrast, the young of most marine teleosts have a free-living larval stage that is completely different from adults in body form, feeding mode, and diet.
