Answer:

Snakes do not have legs so they can not move by walking . They move only by crawling i.e. by sliding from side to side along the ground.

Complete answer:

Snakes move using their flexible body.

They have a long spine with which ribs are connected.

Muscles connected to these ribs help the snake to move or crawl.

There are four ways of moving snakes.

>Serpentine method

>Concertina method

>Sidewinding

>Rectilinear method

Serpentine method:-

In this method snakes move in a wavy form. This type of method enables snakes to move at the greatest velocity.

Concertina method:-

In this method snakes move like a spring or accordion. Snakes twist its body by successively contracting and expanding like a spring and move.

Sidewinding:-

It is also called lateral displacement. In this method the snake forms vertical waves and moves laterally.

Rectilinear method:-

In this method the snake crawls or moves in a straight line with its body’s stretching.
