I am going to say yes to this question because for the past five years I have been friends that happens to be a turtle lover and has some turtles herself. She had these two yellow bellied turtles and every single time she would call for them...they would come. then she had to give them away because they were getting too big for her 35 gallon tank. So she gave them to a friend of hers that had a pond and told them her their names and that they answer to them and from resent reports they still know their names and still come running.

How old would the turtle be if it only had 6.25 percent of the carbon 14 that a living turtle had today?

The half life of carbon 14 is 5730 years.

If the turtle has 6.25 the carbon 14 of a modern turtle, assuming that the ancient turtle had the same amount of C14 as the modern turtle when the ancient turtle died, the ancient turtle died at around 4 half lives of C14 ago. ln(.0625)/ln(.5)=4.

So the turtle died approximately 22920 years ago

Start with 100 percent of the C14. 100

Every time a half life passes, the amount of C14 is reduced by half. so 100*(1/2)^x

x is the number of half lives that have passed.

100*(1/2)^4 = 6.25

I just got a new tortoise and it is 8 months old. She seems to be sleeping a lot and I don't think its normal. How long or often should a tortoise sleep?

It depends...

you should have a heat lamp.

if so, it should be on from 12 am to around 4-5 pm. this will stimulate your tortoise and get it to bask, it is also common for them to sleep while they bask.

What species of tortoise is it?

a tortoise should sleep about 13 hours a night to poperly have a good sleep, but also they take long extended naps during the day.
