Yes. Film captured in Singapore of a 'Dog-faced water snake' (Cerberus rynchops )by a crew for the BBC series 'Life in Cold Blood' clearly shows the animal leaping across mangrove mud using a kind of locomotion described as modified sidewinding. Before this, it was a commonly held belief by herpetologists that snakes could not jump. Some snakes, in the action of striking, may leave the ground for a brief moment, and flying snakes will 'jump' from a tree to glide to the ground but neither of these behaviour could truly be described as jumping.

I guess that it can, but only from a height to a lower area. Like when it is in danger, then it jumps from one branch ,lands on another , clings onto it , positions itself again ,and looks for the predator that was chasing it.

Yes. Their powerful tails can thrust them forward out of the water to grab prey.

5 points that identify diversity between a crocodile and a goat?

*A crocodile has canine styled teeth, for eating meat. *A goat has molar styled teeth, for grinding grass. *A crocodile has scales and smooth skin, easy to dry from being in the water, and is more streamlined. *A goat has hair which keeps it warm in the mountains, where you can find a lot of goats and members of the goat family. *A goat has longer legs than the crocodile, allowing it to run and jump better; across land rather than swimming.
