    Turtles belong to reptiles that breathe with their lungs.

    It's just that the habitat is in the water. **Do not dry for long periods of time.

    So you can walk on land, but you don't grow on land.

    Turtles live on land and in water, and since turtles are amphibians, they should be provided with a sundeck to rest and bask in the sun when they live in the water, and they prefer to stay in damp holes. Turtles must also be kept with water, and their bodies must be kept moist in order for them to survive. Turtles should be kept at a suitable water temperature for growth, and the water should be changed regularly to keep the water quality clean.

    Turtles are amphibians that can live in both water and land, but they need to be exposed to the water to rest and bask in the sun, and turtles prefer to stay in dark and damp holes.

    Turtle feeding can be in the water or on land, and its survival must have water, to keep its body moist to survive, feeding to help it replenish calcium, but also need to bask in the sun to disinfect and replenish calcium.

    Raising turtles should control the appropriate temperature, its best growth temperature is about 23 degrees, below 15 degrees will not eat into hibernation, regular water changes to maintain clean and clear water quality, after feeding in time to clean up food residues.

    Turtles can live on land, tortoises can only live in the open field, and other turtle species can live on land when the ambient humidity exceeds 75%. Although the turtle can live on land, it must have water to ensure that the body is in a moist state. During the feeding period, you can feed small fish and shrimp, and feed with vegetables and fruits.

    Turtles can live on land, in the turtle species, tortoises can only live on land, freshwater turtles and semi-water turtles, as long as the environment is not particularly harsh, the environmental humidity exceeds 75%, in a dark state, in this environment, turtles can also live on land.

    The tortoise is an amphibian that can live both in water and on land, and in the living environment, it is necessary to have the presence of water to ensure that the body is in a moist state to survive. A drying platform can be placed in the tank, and the turtle will take the initiative to swim ashore to dry its back to kill the germs produced on the surface of the turtle shell.

    When raising turtles, you need to choose the right container according to the volume, small turtles can choose to be raised in plastic pots, and large turtles need to use fish tanks or terrariums. During the feeding period, you can choose to feed small fish, shrimp or snail meat as the staple food, and pair it with fresh vegetables and fruits. After each excretion, it is also necessary to change the water in time to reduce the growth of bacteria.

    Live mainly in the water!

    Land is just for ventilation.

    Upstairs note: Turtles are not amphibians.

    It's a reptile.

    That's right. The larvae of amphibians have only gills and therefore can only live in water; Whereas, the adult of amphibians has both gills and lungs, so they can live both in water and on land. Hope it helps. ^_

    Evolutionarily speaking, when the survival of terrestrial animals is threatened, they have evolved the ability to temporarily inhabit water to ensure their survival.

    Because there are cats on land.

    Animals on land breathe by their lungs, while fish have no lungs and only gills that are suitable for aquaculture, so fish can only live in water.

    This sentence is completely wrong!

    Amphibians are a group of vertebrates that transition from aquatic to terrestrial.

    It has nothing ......to do with "being able to live on land and in water".

    There are two creatures in junior high school! Hey, hey......This seems to be a question from the first year of junior high school!

    When turtles fall in love, most of them are probably in the water. When the egg is laid, it runs to the land, and life begins on the land.

    Wish. Although whales are mammals, they have lived in the water for a long time and are no longer adapted to life on land

    1. They have no feet and cannot move on land;

    2. Living in the water for a long time, the physiological function of land animals to prevent dehydration has been degraded, so cetaceans are easy to dehydrate after arriving on land.

    3. Their weight often becomes too heavy, because in the water it is the weight offset by the buoyancy of the whole body, so it is not a big problem, but after coming to the land, all the weight is pressed to the abdomen in contact with the ground, resulting in excessive pressure, blood circulation is blocked, the heart is overburdened, and finally heart failure and death.

    Very simply, according to the environment of the earth at that time, it could only be water, so the biological characteristics of fish in order to survive in the water mentioned by "Liao Qianmao" were derived. Later evolution, only a part of the organisms happened, and the remaining part of the organisms we call fish!

    So it's because the environment produces organisms that adapt to the environment.

    So the most fundamental reason is water!

    If the environment in which we were able to live was directly on land, then it is likely that the creatures that are now called fish are on land, and we are likely to live in the water......

    1. Turtles are not allowed to be kept in the water all the time. Turtles are cold-blooded animals, and they have been in the water for a long time, so they need to go to land to bask in the sun every other time, otherwise the tortoise shell will not grow. If you don't have time, add artificial lights to the sundeck.

    Keep in the water and make sure that the water does not overflow his head, otherwise it will be very painful to sleep, and he must keep coming up to ventilate.

    3. There are many ways to raise turtles in captivity, such as pond culture, tank culture, wood pot culture and reservoir pond culture, and the mu refers to its own advantages and disadvantages, and you can choose according to local conditions. For general professional households and small-scale farms, it is better to build ponds for breeding, because this method is convenient to manage and the economic benefits are greater.

    4. Construction of breeding ponds: The juvenile turtle pond and breeding pond can be built with reference to the specifications and methods of the juvenile turtle pond and breeding pond of the golden turtle. The construction of the adult turtle pond is similar to that of the golden turtle, but the area can be larger to allow for a larger number of turtles.

    Hello, Hoza.

    It is not that some of the turtles in the tits are only alive in the water, and some of them live on land, such as tortoises, which are active on the ground and rarely go into the water.

    Grass turtles are water turtles. Grass turtles are semi-aquatic and semi-terrestrial animals that can live both in the water and on shore. They prefer to live near shallow water areas such as rivers, reservoirs, lakes, streams, ponds, etc.

    They are extremely sensitive to changes in water temperature, and too low a water temperature can cause them to stop eating and activities and go into hibernation. They prefer to climb on the rocks on the shore to bask in the sun. <

    Grass tortoises are aquatic animals, but they sometimes come ashore. Wild grass turtles like to be found near lakes, ponds, streams, and reservoirs. They usually stay in the water during the day, but they also have a period of time to climb ashore.

    During this time, they will look for large rocks or tree stumps and lie on them to bask in the sun.

    In the summer, when the weather is hot, they also flock in groups to find shade. This turtle is sensitive to changes in water temperature and hibernate when the water temperature drops below 15. When the water temperature rises above 15 the following spring, they wake up and resume their activities.

    Grass tortoises are semi-aquatic animals and can live in water. But they can't just live in the water, they also need to go ashore. Therefore, if you want to breed this turtle, you should choose a large tank and provide them with a terrace where they can bask in the sun.

    Although they live underwater most of the time, the water level in the tanks should not be too deep. It's a good idea to have the water level just below the limbs of the grass turtles, so that their heads can be exposed to the water. If the water level is too high, it is likely to cause them to drown.

    The breeding tank should be placed in a well-lit and well-ventilated place as much as possible. This turtle has a docile temperament and generally does not fight. They do not have high requirements for the environment and are relatively easy to raise.

    Turtles can, tortoises cannot.

    Sea turtles like hognose turtles live in the water all year round in addition to laying eggs, and are highly aquatic reptiles, so of course such turtles can live in the water for a long time.

    Other tortoises, like the Brazilian tortoise, cannot stay in the water for long periods of time. The water should not overflow his head, otherwise it will be very painful to sleep, and he must keep coming up to breathe.

Your blood type may be type O blood, type 0 blood is commonly known as totipotent blood, is a more general blood type that can be transfused to people of other blood types in times of crisis, but although people with blood type O are called universal blood transfusions, they can not be transfused to others casually, there are actually many antigens on the red blood cells in human blood, but A, B, AB, O and RH types are the most common, it is best to give blood transfusions to people of what blood type, if the blood source is really tight, Under the condition that the RH blood type is met, the patient can also be transfused with type O blood, but it should be transfused slowly and in small amounts, otherwise there will be a coagulation reaction and cause discomfort to the patient, I hope this knowledge can help you. Blood transfusions can be received from people of any blood type, because people with genotype AB have enzymatic activity on both A and B alleles, and these people do not have lectins in their plasma. >>>More
