Depends how its "broken." If it really is cracked or broken the turtle most likely will die or will be paralyzed. If the portion broken is only on the side and doesn't get to close to the center then most likely it will survive. It all depends on if the broken part touches the spinal cord/or reveals internal organs.
Well, I assume you know what an adaptation is (the qualities an animal needs to adjust to their enviroment), so this should be easy for you. A Box turtle's adaptations. . . 1. Their size 2.Their shell 3.(I think) Their jaws. . . They do snap, am I correct? Well, that's about all I can think of. Is this for science homework or plain curiosity?
No, box turtles have normal (though large) shells.
Additionally, they have a hinged shell which closes when they pull in their head. Which is why they are called 'box' turtles.
Yes, they are internal. There are small holes behind their eyes. They (turtles) also sense low frequencies throughout their bodies - they can 'sense' footsteps near them.
No turtles have teeth. They all have beaks.
No
height of plant that it feeds from (neck adaptation) enemies, preadators (shell adaptation)
They are safe in their shell.
hide from predators
Upper shell is the carapace, and the lower shell is the plastron.
Turtles have a shell To protect them from predators also have a shell because its their back bone But its on the outside of its body.
the shell- It protects the turtle. When there is danger, the turtle will pull its legs, tail and head into its shell. The shell is also hard and protective. the feet- It helps the turtle to swim and also to crawl on land. Turtles tend to have webbed feet. the neck- It allows water to flow out from it.
Yes, box turtles are usually safe to handle, they don't usually bite, just hide in their shell. All you have to remember is to wash your hands when you are done.
yes turtles do have a bottom shell
Box turtles have a high domed shell, which is hinged at the bottom, allowing the animal to close its shell tightly to escape predators.
Box turtles are easily recognized by their box-like shells. Because of the box-like structure, the turtle is able to fit completely inside its shell.
A turtle. and define what you are thinking is a "protective shell"
A terrapin has a shell because it is a turtle, of course. There are 4kinds of turtles: aquatic turtles, land turtles, terrapins, and sea turtles. All turtles have shells.
