How can you tell if a snake is both prokaryotic and eukaryotic?
DNA is a nucleic acid. It is not an organism or creature by itself. However, DNA is the carrier of genetic information contained within both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Therefore, DNA is found within cells.
Are there any snakes with legs?
Yes. They devolved them from being lizards
EDIT:
Snakes and Varanoid lizards (Helodermatidae, Lanthanotus, and Varanidae) are believed to have a common ancestor. However, regardless of what exactly the ancestor was, snakes did evolve from a legged reptilian ancestor some time in the Cretaceous period.
Most species of snakes lay eggs, most of which abandon them shortly after laying. About 70% of snake species lay eggs. A few species actually construct nests and stay in the vicinity of the eggs, sometimes coiling around the eggs to create heat to incubate them.
Some species of snakes retain the eggs until almost ready to hatch and lay them shortly before hatching begins. However, there are a few species of snakes that nourish their young with a placenta in addition to the yolk sac, with is highly unusual. Snakes of these species include rattlesnakes, copperheads, water snakes, and garter snakes.

What type of snake can eat a cow?
From a previous answer...
It's entirely possible, yes. A young, immature snake is much more able to kill a cow (or a young calf) than a fully grown adult, simply because the young snake tends to inject all its venom at one time into the animal. An adult snake only injects just a little, which will make the area where the snake bit the cow a bit swollen and sore for a while, but won't kill the cow.
How someone would cure a snake bite?
What to do when bitten by a snake bite
Keep the bitten area still. You can immobilize the area with an improvised splint made from a board or other stiff material tied to the limb. Don't tie it too tight---you don't want to reduce blood flow. Keep the area of the snake bite lower than the heart. DO NOT cut open the wound and try to suck out the venom. DO NOT put ice on the bitten area. Remove constricting clothing or other objects from the extremity. The area may swell and constricting items will cause tissue death. The only way to truly cure a rattle snake bite, is to treat it with antivenin/antivenom.
I'm afraid I can't give you an exact statistic on this, but I can tell you that it's incredibly rare. Not only that, but almost all casualties caused by pet snakes can be avoided by simply being smart about how you handle your pet.
First of all, don't get a venomous snake or a large constrictor until you have a reasonable amount of experience working with snakes. For venomous snake, you're going to want one EXPERIENCED handler per 4 feet of snake, at LEAST.
Most pet snake casualties are caused by constrictions, not bites, so use common sense. Don't try to medicate a 15ft python on your own. Remember, a snake's body (especially a constrictor) is pretty much pure muscle. It's not too hard for it to overpower you.
Things like garter snakes and corn snakes aren't going to kill you.

Turtles that are purely aquatic do not go in to complete hibernation but go in to a semi hibernation state usually at the bottom of the pool where they may remain for long periods according to the external climate. Amphibious turtles leave the water and settle in the surrounding moist and grassy land often in burrows. Terrestrial turtles as well as aquatic ones if they are kept in well lit and heated pools or enclosures often do not hibernate but remain active feeding throughout the year. Turtles though unlike tortoises should not be allowed to hibernate in dry places as they need moisture without which they could die from dehydration. The most favored period of hibernation for turtles like tortoises is from October, when the start displaying visible signs of sluggishness and a marked decrease in appetite, to March when they come out of hibernation. Hibernation in turtles varies according to the species as well as the climate of the place from which they originate.
What do snakes eat and how do they get food?
They actively hunt for it - following scent trails. They subdue their prey either by venomous bite or constriction.
Although some snakes actively hunt their prey, many are ambush predators. They'll lie in wait under debris for their prey come within striking distance, sitting out near their prey's homes and getting them when they return, etc. Ball pythons are also well known for living in the network of tunnels in termite mounds where mammals hang out and eating all the inhabitants before moving onto the next mound.
