Answer:
Which of the following is not part of the turtle's shell?
✔️ C. Tail
- The tail is NOT a part of the turtle's shell. The scute, plastron and carapace are parts of the turtle's shell.
- The scute consists of different parts: the vertebral scute, nuchal scute, costal scute and marginal scute. The marginal scute is the outermost scute found on the edges of the shell. The vertebral scute is located on the middle of the turtle's shell, and the costal scute is located around the vertebral scute. Nuchal scute is located near the head of the turtle which has a bend or curve figure. The carapace is the top of the turtle's shell, while the plastron is the bottom part.
