Despite longstanding assumptions by marine biologists, very young sea turtles travel by swimming, not just drifting.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The movement of sea turtles will be always slower in nature. This is because they are herbivores. They feed on plants and they will be available for them in larger quantity. Hence, they move slowly because they are not in a need to run behind their food faster.

Drifting refers to the movement due to force or pressure that may be caused by wind. Swimming refers to a movement where the entire body movement is essential for moving. From the investigation by the researchers given in the example, we can conclude that despite of longstanding assumptions by marine biologists, very young sea turtles travel by swimming, not just drifting.
