Biology
The Origin of the Snake is a mystery for those of mainstream science and evolution. This long, cylindrical animal does not resemble any other animal of its size and explaining the origin of the snake with standard evolutionary principles is difficult.
Did the snake lose its legs? The snake moves easily across the ground without a single limb on its body, and snakes are also good swimmers. Despite being classified as a reptile, the snake has no legs. Why do other reptiles have legs but the snake does not?
Did the snake originate on land or in the sea? Most reptiles live on land but many snakes can swim in the waters. Evolutionists believe that snakes are related to lizards. How did snakes lose their legs or how did lizards gain legs? Needing a set of limbs does not explain how the feature originated.
The elongated body allows it to be flexible in movement. The unique flexible anatomy of the snake allows it to swallow larger animals.
Snake skin is covered with scales and its internal organs are stacked in place along its lenticular body, as a product of unique design. The snake skeleton is flexible.
Despite the thousands of named species of snakes, the basic morphology is similar and should be classified as a "kind" as creationists commonly use.
The forked tongue of the snake allows it to smell particles in the air, improving its senses.
Infrared thermal radiation can be detected by boas, pythons, and pit viper snakes. Special organs or "pit organs" which are essentially holes on their face that contains a membrane that allows them to see radiant heat at wavelengths between 5 and 30 micrometers. Warm bodied animals can be detected up to a meter away by creating a thermal image of a nearby animal that also allows them to see in the dark.
