Snakes use their tongue as an aid in smelling, and molecules detected are passed back into the mouth for identification.
Snake venom is a modified form of saliva, whose ordinary purpose is adding enzymes to the food to aid digestion.
Some snakes have further improved the design by having sharp fangs down which the poison can be passed into the punctured animal.
do boa snakes have go smelling
snakes do have noses but they only use them to breath. they do not smaell wih their noses. they taste the air with heir tongue and that is the closest thing they have to smelling
Tongue is for tasting and the nose is used for smelling.
Yes it causes AIDS
Same exact organs as you and me, but in a different package (snakes have one lung though, and snakes, monitors lizards, tegus, and some other lizards have a Jacobson's organ like cats, which allows for better smell, and directional smelling but the reptiles mentioned use their tongue for smell, and snakes have no nostrils).
breathingWrong!The snake's tongue is an olfactory (sense of smell) organ.they smell with them. They stick the tongue out and then move each forked half into pockets in their head. There are sensors in the pockets that act like smelling. That is why their tongues are always going into the air and back into their heads.
Of course! Snakes have a much greater sense of smell than humans, in fact. Snakes do not have protruding noses(or ears, for that matter). They have two nostrils just above the mouth. Snakes also "taste" the air with their tongue. This could, possibly, be classified as another form of "smelling" by some people.
One forked tongue is one of the snakes by the dinosaur and the other is one of the blue monsters snakes tongue.
As with other snakes, the tongue is about as long as its' head.
tongue
Yes, But most snakes use their nose for smelling; some snakes use their forked tongues
No, snakes do not have eyes on their tail. Snakes see by flicking their tongue "to taste the air".
