Question

Difference between sea snakes and land snakes

Answer 1

They lack the wide belly scales land snakeshave for crawling on land. Only sea kraits (which are different from sea snakes) have wide belly scales. They are usually slightly flattened from side to side to increase the surface area for swimming. Sea kraits are cylindrical, but they're not true sea snakes

Answer 2

Explanation:

True sea snakes have flattened, ribbon-like bodies, with oarlike tails. This makes them efficient swimmers but lousy land crawlers. Sea kraits, on the other hand, have cylindrical bodies like a terrestrial snake, but still have flat tails. Sea kraits lay eggs on land before going back to the ocean.
