Depending on the species, sea turtles may be carnivorous (meat eating), herbivorous (plant eating), or omnivorous (eating both meat and plants). The jaw structure of many species is adapted for their diet. Green sea turtles have finely serrated jaws adapted for a vegetarian diet of sea grasses and algae.
