How sea Turtle gets fresh water from the sea?

  Sea Turtle is a tortoise found in the ocean. It has an excellent method of overcoming the lack of fresh water in the sea- it's home. To avoid dehydration ( deficiency of water in body), it gulps sea water. The excess salt in the water this swallowed is disposed of through salt glands located above the eyes. These glands separate and release a concentrated solution of salt - twice as salty as sea water. The salt solution is washed away by tears. Thus the Turtle gets fresh water and is not harmed by the high levels of salt in it.
