Summary:
The standard DEB model covers, like all DEB models, all phases in the development of an individual: embryo, juvenile and adult.
The only assumed difference between a juvenile and an embryo is that an embryo has no assimilation, and a juvenile has.
Many species turned out to follow this pattern; I give examples of a bird and a shark.
Over time, however,, we discovered that quite a few species deviate from this pattern, and these deviations can be classified into 5 categories, 
 that I will review and illustratrate with examples.
