Overview. Complex carbohydrates are made up of sugar molecules that are strung together in long, complex chains. Complex carbohydrates are found in foods such as peas, beans, whole grains, and vegetables. Both simple and complex carbohydrates are turned to glucose (blood sugar) in the body and are used as energy.
A turtle is an animal in armor. Much of its body lies within a protective shell, which has openings for the turtle's four chunky legs, short tail, and head. When danger threatens, many turtles pull legs, tail, and head into the shell.
Sea turtles are from the animal class of reptile. This means they are cold-blooded, have scaly skin, breathe air, and lay eggs. There are seven types of species of sea turtles. These include loggerhead, leatherback, olive ridley, hawksbill, flatback, green, and Kemp's ridley sea turtles. Sometimes the Black sea turtle is considered an eighth species of sea turtle.
