Snakes

Snakes have backbones. They are vertebrates. They are classified in the Subphylum Vertebrata.

snakes are vertebrates because if you look inside the snake on a picture you can see the spine it's actually pretty long.

A snake has a spine/backbone and is therefore a vertebrate.

To avoid rattlesnake dangers, stay on designated trails and avoid tall grass or dense brush where they may hide. Wear sturdy boots and long pants when hiking in rattlesnake-prone areas and be cautious when placing your hands or feet in areas where a rattlesnake could be hiding. If you encounter a rattlesnake, slowly back away and give it space to retreat.

Yes, some species of snakes are semi-aquatic and can be found living in water for parts of their lives. Water snakes, sea snakes, and anacondas are examples of snakes that are adapted to living in aquatic environments. However, not all snakes are aquatic, and some prefer to live on land.

The most venomous snake on earth is the Belcher's Sea Snake (Hydrophis Belcheri) or the Faint Banded Sea Snake, some consider the Inland Taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus) an/or the Beaked Sea Snake (Enhydrina schistosa) to be the most toxic, however, with recent and more accurate studies prove the Belcheri has a 100 times more toxic venom then the two above or any other snake on earth.

It has a paddle-like tail, breathes air and can hold it's breath up to 8 hours, a few milligrams of venom can kill over a thousand people.

It's habitat is a wide range in the South Pacific.

Excluding the Belcher's Sea Snake the next most venomous snakes on earth according to their venom rating are:

2- Inland Tiapan (Oxyuranus Microlepidotus).

3- Common Indian Krait (Bungarus Caeruleus).

4- Philippine Cobra (Naja Philippinensis).

5- King Cobra (Ophiophagus Hanna).

6- Russell's Viper (Vipera Russellii).

7- Black Mamba (Dendroaspis Polylepis).

8- Yellow Jawed Tommygoff (Bothrops Asper).

9- Multibanded krait (Bungarus Multicinctus).

10- Tigar Snake (Notechis Scutatus).

11- Jararacussu (Bothrops Jararacussu).

I do not have the capability to display images. However, a black and white striped snake you may be referring to is the California kingsnake, which has distinct alternating black and white stripes along its body.

Ribbon snakes eat fish, frogs, toads, and sometimes rodents in the wild. I'm not sure if they eat insects, although I believe they eat earthworms too. In captivity they are generally fed mice, which may need to be scented by the natural prey (rubbing a minnow on a mouse, for example) before it is accepted.

A Common Krait snake typically weighs between 500 grams to 1 kilogram (1.1 to 2.2 pounds), with females usually being larger and heavier than males.

There are only two species of poisonous snakes in Delaware: the northern copperhead and the timber rattlesnake. Both are venomous, but their bites are rarely fatal to humans.

Some snakes that are safe to eat include rattlesnakes, pythons, water snakes, and boa constrictors. However, it is important to properly prepare and cook the snake meat to avoid any potential health risks. It is recommended to consult with a local expert or guide when consuming snake meat.

snakes don't dislocate there jaw! There jaw looks more like predator than the standard human mandible and maxilla. They also have a very long flexible ligament that helps to swallow large prey. Snakes dislocating there jaw is a misconception made worse by films saying they do when they really don't.

A baby mangrove tree is called a propagule. It is a seedling that germinates while still attached to the parent tree, and once matured, it falls into the water to float away and establish itself in a new location.

While bull snakes are resistant to rattlesnake venom, they are not completely immune. Some studies suggest that bull snakes have developed certain physiological adaptations that allow them to survive rattlesnake bites, but they can still be affected by the venom to some extent. It is still important to exercise caution and seek medical attention if bitten by a rattlesnake.

Its a warning to beware of deception; those who invite with a smile (and appearing friendly) but dont reveal their true nature.

there is a variation which simply says "show no teeth" as in give nothing away, not a snarl nor a smile.

It depends what type of active ingredients are in the venom. Venom generally falls into one of two groups - Haemotoxins or Neurotoxins. Haemotoxins attack the blood stream, causing blood to clot or breaking down the blood vessels so the victim literally bleeds to death. Neurotoxins work on the nervous system, paralysing the victim, or shutting down the respiratory system.

A snake's skeleton is internal and made of bones, while a fish's skeleton is primarily made of cartilage. Additionally, fish skeletons typically have two main sections: the backbone and the skull, while snake skeletons are more elongated and flexible to aid in their slithering movement.

1. Camouflage: Snakes have evolved coloration and patterns that help them blend in with their surroundings, making it easier to avoid predators or ambush prey.
2. Thermal sensing: Pit vipers have specialized organs that detect infrared radiation, allowing them to sense the heat given off by warm-blooded prey even in the dark.
3. Burrowing: Some snake species have adapted to live underground, using their ability to burrow to escape extreme temperatures, hide from predators, or ambush prey.

yes it is

Copperhead snakes are ambush predators, meaning they wait for prey to come near before striking. They have heat-sensing pits on their heads that help them detect warm-blooded prey. Once a suitable prey animal is within range, the copperhead strikes quickly and uses its venom to incapacitate the prey.

The inland taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus), also known as the "fierce snake", is considered the most venomous snake in the world. Its venom is extremely potent and can cause rapid paralysis and death if not treated promptly.

In a fight between a rabbit and a snake, the outcome would likely depend on the size and species of both animals. Snakes have natural predatory instincts and venom that can be lethal. However, rabbits are fast and agile, with the ability to deliver powerful kicks. Ultimately, it's hard to predict the winner in such a scenario.

After it's 'young' is born, it keeps it where it is. Never lets it leave it's sight. Let's say, an eagle were to of come by and snatched the offspring, the mother of the young would put up a good fight. She would snatch its wing.
