How sea turtles develop into adults

I done this with my co writing grou

Female sea turtles lay their eggs in the sand and sadly 20 % never survive. Sea turtles have been around since the Jurassic time, over 150 million years.

Firstly a female sea turtle lays approximately 50 and 200 eggs at one time. She lays her eggs in a hole on the beach and covers them with sand. Once she has done that she leaves her eggs and goes back to the ocean. After the female  lays her eggs they take around 6 weeks to hatch but sadly 20% of those eggs that are layed never hatch.

next sea turtles that make it to the ocean have to survive many dangers like  crabs,birds and rubbish.Then babies are the size of a humans palm and the size of a ping pong ball. Finally 50% do not make it to sea.

once the babies  reaches the sea they try and find a hiding place like seaweed because there are many  dangers in the sea like sharks, waves ,dolphins ,crabs ,sea bird when coming out to breath.

then 50% of them survive in the sea and the other 50% of them dies.

Firstly As each turtle grows they are not able to breed baby sea turtles until they are about 20 years in age .

but to live that long is very hard being a turtle, Because sea turtles are prey and there are many things that could eat them.If a sea turtle is lucky  they can live up to 80 years of age.Finally the mother sea turtle crawls onto the beach and lays her eggs then another life cycle begins
