There is no such thing as an "adult larva" , a larva is always immature ( a "baby"). If you mean "how is a sponge larva different from and adult sponge?" The answer is:
1. The larva is almost microscopic. You can't really see it with your bare eye.
2. the larva swims around. an Adult sponge stays attached to a surface for its lifetime and can't swim
A larva is an immature form of a sponge looks very different from the adult sponge.

Yes, but only through ocean current.
Metamorphosis in sponges refers to the process where a free-swimming larva settles on a substrate and undergoes transformation into the adult sponge. During metamorphosis, the larva attaches itself to a surface, loses its cilia, and undergoes structural changes to develop into the adult sponge body plan. This process is essential for the larvae to transition from a planktonic stage to a sessile adult form.
no....yes.....it can be and can't at the same time.....
Larva
Sexual reproduction of a sponge Sponges do not give birth or hatch from an egg. A sponge has both sperm and egg cell. The sponge releases sperm cell. The sperm cell lands in another sponge and fertilizes the egg cell in the sponge. The sperm and egg cell produce a larva. A larva is an immature form of an animal that looks different from the adult form. The larva gets taken away by the current and lands on a hard surface and grows into a sponge. Budding of a sponge ( a form of asexual reproduction) off the sides of a sponge a sponge grows. That sponge breaks off and lands on a hard surface and is a sponge.
it is from egg to larva , larva to pupa and to the adult (beetle)

larva stage
Complete metamorphosis is a type of insect development involving four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. In this process, the larva undergoes a dramatic change during the pupal stage before emerging as an adult with different body structure and habits. Examples of insects that undergo complete metamorphosis include butterflies, beetles, and flies.
