1. Do you know how long the golden coin turtle lives?Golden Coin Turtle (Three-lined Golden Turtle): It is said that it can live for over 100 years in a dormant state in a suitable environment, about 30-50 years. But rumors are just rumors. Just treat it well, after all, it is very valuable. 2. How long can golden coin turtles live?Thousand-year-old turtle 3. How long is the life span of a turtle?The turtle is one of the few animals that live longer than humans. How long is the life span of a turtle? According to relevant data, "its natural life span is generally 150 years", "according to relevant research, some live for more than 300 years, and some even live for more than a thousand years." What is the secret of the turtle's longevity? Scientists have found that turtles not only have a slow metabolism, but also can slow down their physiological rhythms and enter a state of suspended animation. Cell studies have found that the number of generations of animal fibroblasts is proportional to the life span of the animal. The cells of turtles differentiate slowly and reproduce many times. Its fibroblasts can reach 125 generations in vitro, while human fibroblasts can only reach 50 generations, which is generally 175 years old or more than 300 years old. Relevant data show that "their natural life span is generally 150 years", "according to relevant research, some live for more than 300 years, and some even live for more than a thousand years." What is the secret of the longevity of turtles? Scientists have found that turtles not only have a slow metabolism, but can also slow down their physiological rhythms and enter a state of suspended animation. Cell research has found that the number of generations of animal fibroblasts is proportional to the life span of the animal. Turtle cells differentiate slowly and reproduce more generations. Its fibroblasts can reach 125 generations in vitro, while human fibroblasts can only reach 50 generations. There are contradictory reports. Report 1: Xinhua News Agency reported that on November 15, Brisbane Zoo in Australia held a grand birthday party for a 175-year-old tortoise. This female tortoise named "Harriet" is the oldest animal in the world. It was brought back to England from the Galapagos Islands in western Ecuador when Darwin visited there. It was then brought to Australia. The picture shows "Harriet" and the tortoise-shaped cake prepared for her by the zoo. Report 2: Now, scientists have studied the living habits and physiological functions of turtles and have begun to solve the mystery of turtles' longevity: 1) According to the observation and research of zoologists and turtle experts, it is found that the lifespan of turtles that feed on plants is generally longer than that of carnivorous and omnivorous turtles. For example, domestic turtles living on tropical islands in the Pacific and Indian Oceans feed on grass, wild fruits and cacti, and have a particularly long lifespan of 300 years. 2) Turtles have a unique body structure and physiological functions. Turtles have a hard shell that protects their heads, abdomens, limbs and tails from external damage. At the same time, turtles have a habit of being sleepy and sleep for about 10 months a year, hibernating in winter and in summer. In this way, their metabolism becomes slower and their energy consumption is very low. 3) According to scientists’ research, there is a clock for cell division in human and animal cells, which limits the number of cell generations and the life span of cells. Human embryonic lung fibroblasts can no longer survive after 50 generations of in vitro culture, while turtles can survive up to 110 generations, which shows that the number of generations of turtle cell reproduction is closely related to the life span of turtles. 4) Zoologists and medical scientists have examined the heart function of turtles. They found that after the turtle's heart was removed from the body, it was able to beat on its own for 24 hours. This shows that the turtle's heart function is relatively strong, which plays an important role in the turtle's lifespan. 5) Scientists believe that the longevity of turtles is also related to their breathing method. Because turtles do not have intercostal muscles, they must move the lower part of their mouth up and down to inhale air into their mouths and press it into their lungs. Also, when they breathe, their heads and feet stretch and retract, and their lungs expand and inhale. This special breathing action is also the reason why turtles live long. Scientists also believe that turtles are an excellent animal model for studying human longevity. Therefore, further uncovering the secrets of turtle longevity will have great implications for studying human health and longevity. 4. How many years does a turtle live?The turtle is one of the few animals that can live longer than humans. How long is the life span of a turtle? Relevant data shows that "its natural life span is generally 150 years", "according to relevant research, some can live for more than 300 years, and some even exceed a thousand years." What is the secret of the turtle's longevity? Scientists have discovered that turtles not only have a slow metabolism, but can also slow down their own physiological rhythms and enter a state of suspended animation. Cell studies have found that the number of generations of animal fibroblast reproduction is directly proportional to the life span of the animal. Turtle cells differentiate slowly and reproduce many times. Its fibroblasts can reach 125 generations in vitro, while human fibroblasts can only reach 50 generations. Generally, the life span of wild turtles is about 30-60 years, and the life span of different species of turtles is also different. From a scientific point of view, it is difficult to make an accurate statistical analysis of the life span of wild turtles. The life span of aquatic turtles will not exceed 100 years, and it is very good if they can live more than 50 years. The life span of land tortoises is longer, and those who can live more than 100 years are considered very long-lived. Domestic red-eared sliders can generally live for 40-50 years. A healthy one is said to live to around 60 years old. According to the Guinness Book of World Records, the longest lifespan of a sea turtle is 152 years. Generally speaking, large turtles live longer than small turtles. 5. How long is the life span of a turtle?Hello, friend. A turtle lives for a thousand years and a tortoise lives for ten thousand years. This shows how long the life span of a turtle is. But this is just an exaggeration. In fact, not all turtles can live that long. Experts have investigated that the life span of tortoises that eat plants on some islands near the Pacific Ocean is as high as 300 years. And because of the climate, the tortoises there hibernate for a long time every year. This shows that hibernating tortoises live much longer than non-hibernating tortoises. Because during hibernation, their metabolism is very slow in all aspects, so their lives are in a state of suspension. The life span of a Brazilian tortoise raised by an average person is about 15 to 25 years. The life span of a tortoise is about 50 years. The life span of a sea turtle can reach 100 to 150 years. But there is no absolute limit. It depends on the person and the person's raising skills. Therefore, friends who keep turtles and use heating rods to keep them eating and not hibernating should be aware that such turtles may not live long, haha! Okay, I have typed them word by word. If you have any questions, please continue to ask, and I will definitely answer them in time. I hope you will accept my answer, thank you. Okay, it's all hand-made. |
