Answer:

The most obvious difference comes from their appearances.

Crocodiles have longer, pointier snouts; alligators have shorter, more rounded snouts. ...

In contrast, when a crocodile has its mouth shut, its back teeth stick up over the top lip, showing off a toothy grin.

Answer:

Snout shape: Alligators have wider, U-shaped snouts, while crocodile front ends are more pointed and V-shaped.

Toothy grin: When their snouts are shut, crocodiles look like they're flashing a toothy grin, as the fourth tooth on each side of the lower jaw sticks up over the upper lip. For alligators, the upper jaw is wider than the lower one, so when they close their mouths, all their teeth are hidden.

Home base: Crocodiles tend to live in saltwater habitats, while alligators hang out in freshwater marshes and lakes.
