They use their tongues, with which they pick up particles and leave them to a special organ called vomeronasal organ.
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
Snakes use their tongue to smell. tongue collect smell particles from air and tongue places the collected particles in a receptor at back of the mouth to analize the smell.
Snakes 'taste' the air with their tongues. They draw odor particles into their mouths and taste them with their Jacobson's organ in the roof of the mouth. It is a manner for exploring their environment and searching for food.
No, dogs do not smell with their tongues. They have a highly developed sense of smell due to their powerful noses, which contain up to 300 million scent receptors. The licking behavior in dogs is more related to tasting and exploring their environment.
Snakes do use their tongues to smell. The snake uses its tongue as part of the system of perception called the vomeronasal system.
Snakes use there tongues for a lot of thing. Snakes use their tongues for smell and to find food.
Yes they do
Snakes breath through nostrils like you and me, but if you mean how do they smell, then the snake's sense of smell is in it's tongue, which is why snakes flick their tongues a lot.
Two main reasons . . . one is to smell things (with their tongues) and the other is to eat things.
Snakes have long tongues because that is how they smell and see. They use the tongue as one of their senses; that is why it is always going in and out of their mouth.

Yes. They also use it to see and touch. It can pick up scents from the air this way and those on the floor by flicking its tongue.
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.
No, snakes do though! =)
most snakes cant see very well or not at all with their eyes. They rely on their forked tongues to smell and sense things
