Turtle.

Yes a turtle has a backbone, it is partially integrated into the shell carapace.
The shell covering the top of a turtle's body is called the carapace (say karra-pace).It is made of a hard substance called scutes.Some turtles do not have a hard carapace. The carapace of soft-shelled turtles and the leatherback turtle is made of thick skin.The shape of a carapace is not always the same:
i only know the shell, i dont know the other one
A calipash is an edible greenish material found underneath the upper half of a turtle's shell.
Turtle, tortoise and terrapin are three reptiles that have a shell. The upper shell is the carapace, and plastron is the lower case.
Because leatherbacks primarily eat jellyfish. They have two sharply pointed cusps, one on the upper and one on the lower jaw that allows them to pierce jellies and other soft-bodied organisms.
The upper shell is called the dorsal carapace.
A turtle's spine/backbone is attached internally to its shell - so to take off the shell is to rip the backbone out of the body and kill the turtle. A turtle shell consists of two parts - the carapace (the upper convex shell) and the plastron (the lower concave shell) which are joined together by two connecting bone bridges. The backbone is attached to the the carapace at the top, and to the ribs on the bottom sides. As a result, most of the length of the turtle's backbone is fixed in place as one bone! with only the tail and neck retaining flexibility, so when Donatello, Leonardo, Raphael and Michelangelo partied, they definitely tried to avoid dancing.
The upper part of the shell is the carapace.
