Turtles come out of water for air because they can survive in and out of water. When the turtles are in the water they slow down their heart beat to survive longer in the water but still come out to breathe. When turtles come out of water they are normal andbreathe.Turtles are like us when were in water but then they slow down their heart beat to stay longer in the water and will come in about half an hour to come up and breathe.

A Mississippi Mud Turtle is a Semi-Aquatic turtle and as such, it will breathe not only from it's mouth, but needs to have adequate filtration in its tank so that way it can breathe subcutaneously, that is, through their skin (like a frog does) when it is sleeping in the water at night. But mostly, it breathes through its mouth.
