I am doing a research project for my accelerated science class. For my topic I chose sea turtles.
Sea turtles have long paddle like fore flippers.
The sea turtle's shell is made of an upper and lower parts connected with cartilage. Sea turtles do not have teeth but powerful jaws that are shaped to chew food. The sea turtle does not have external ears. The eardrum is covered with a thin layer of skin. The female sea turtle lays her eggs in a pit that she has dug on shore.
