If a turtle does not have a shell, it would be highly vulnerable to predators and environmental threats, as the shell serves as a crucial protective barrier. Additionally, the shell plays a vital role in the turtle's overall health, helping to regulate its body temperature and providing structural support. Without a shell, the turtle would likely struggle to survive and could face severe injury or death.
