Yes they can. The opening to their lungs is in the form of a muscular tube that can be closed when required. Even snakes that are normally land-dwellers have the ability to bite while in water.
All snakes can and will bite, if threatened by a human. They are more afraid of you than you are of them.
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.
While a snake's forked tongue looks dangerous, it really is not. Snakes actually smell with their tongues. If snakes bite, they use their teeth
I am a snake keeper and avid student of all things reptile. There is no known species of snake that can not swim. Many land snakes spend a lot of time in the water including the larger heavier varieties such as the Anaconda, Burmese and Reticulated Pythons, etc. Snakes are, by design, well suited to swimming. They are buoyant and move swiftly in the water using the same muscles they use to move across dry land. Even snakes that are originally from the desert areas take right to water. I know because I have a Desert Phase California King Snake that loves taking baths in deep tubs. Snakes are amazing creatures that are worth getting to know.
Yes, water moccasins, also known as cottonmouths, are able to bite underwater. They are semi-aquatic snakes that can swim and hunt in water, making them capable of biting underwater if they feel threatened. Their venom can be dangerous, so it's important to be cautious around them in their natural habitat.

water snakes and land snakes are practically the same. many land snakes are even partitially aquatic. however, in the case of sea snakes, they have flattened tails used as propellers in the water, and massive lungs to hold their breath for long periods. also, sea snakes have much more potent venom then land snakes but are much less aggresive
