Some pet tortoises eat lettuce, romaine lettuce, squash, cucumber, dandelions,hibiscus leaves, small crickets, or even pumpkin.
The same as their naturally-occurring relatives... water !

Yes
No... they digest what they've eaten. They do not store food for winter.
Anatomy is important, especially when trying to find the sex or gender of a pet. The male tortoises sex organ can be found down between it's rear legs.
Because most Russian Tortoises in the pet trade are, in fact, wild caught, or are at least housed with those that are, it is advisable to go to the vet after purchase. Your vet can check for parasites that are common in wild caught tortoises.
Desert Tortoises go to sleep in the evening, and wake up in the morning, around 7:30 or so. I don't know if this is the same for adult Desert Tortoises, but my Desert Tortoise does this sleeping routine, and it is 6 days old.

The noun children's is the plural possessive form. Replace the word 'children' with 'ladies'. "The ladies' pet" is obviously plural possessive. The term 'The children's pet' is a singular subject or object, for example: The children's pet is a rabbit. The care of the children's pet is the children's responsibility.
tortoises eat lettuce and carrots, but I would hold off on the bugs. Try feeding it (if you have one) salads or go to a pet store and get dry turtle/tortoise food for him/her.
