Why does a turtle continue to live even out of the water?

Well to answer your question, they breath air, because air has oxygen and reptiles need oxygen received through their respiratory system. But a stupid question deserves a stupid answer so here goes: 'because turtles do infact breath water, a turtle can continue to live even out of the water because of their shell. The shell serves two purposes: 1. To protect the turtle from predators, 2. Because it protects and houses a large sack of water from which the turtle can draw upon to breath. Of you see a turtle with a runny nose, or a very slow turtle, these are side effects of a over full water sack.
