Scientists are currently studying turtles to figure out why they don't age like we do. Some researchers believe turtles might hold the secret to extending human life
All creatures in a complex ecological system serve a purpose, and turtles do too.
Turtles and crocodiles are the scavengers of the water bodies like vultures and hyenas for land. Without turtles and crocodiles, the life forms that die in waterbodies like lakes or rivers would rot and pollute them. But, these turtles and crocs eat those dead animals and keep the water clean.
They are a very important part in the ecosystem.
Turtles may not be energetic, but in my opinion they would look beautiful if you keep them cleanly.
Ps- I saw a turtle once that WAS really energetic.... ;)
yes turtles are important because they are part of our ecosystem. If there weren't any turtles then the animals that eat turtles would die!
The significance of a turtle would depend upon its context.
Every animal is useful in the ecosystem, turtles eat fish and crab, while sharks and people eat turtles
Because they are
humans!
Turtles (reptiles) are close to humans and frogs (amphibians) http://abacus.gene.ucl.ac.uk/will/files/TreeOfLife.pdf

Because humans scare us.
Some turtles can bite humans - I think a big snapping turtle might be able to cut your finger off. However, turtles do not prey on humans for food.
Not well at all.
