          Description

          साप हा सरपटणारा प्राणी आहे. सापांचे वैशिष्ट्य म्हणजे त्यांना कुठल्याही प्रकारचे हात अथवा पाय नसतात. उत्क्रांतीमध्ये त्यांचे हात व पाय हे केवळ सांगाड्यावरील भाग म्हणून राहिले आहेत. त्यांना हातपाय नसल्याने ते जमिनीवर नागमोडी आकारात सरपटतात. सापांबद्दल जनमानसात भीतीची भावना असते, त्याचे कारण म्हणजे त्यांचे विष. साप चावल्यानंतर त्याचे विष भक्ष्यामध्ये सोडतो. विषाच्या प्रभावाने भक्ष्य काही वेळात मरते व त्यानंतर साप ते भक्ष्य खातो. हजारो माणसे दरवर्षी सर्पदंशाने मरतात. खरेतर सर्वच साप विषारी नसतात केवळ थोड्याच जाती विषारी आहेत. सापांची विषारी व बिनविषारी अशी वर्गवारी होऊ शकते. सापांच्या डोक्याच्या कवटीमध्ये सांध्यांचे प्रमाण जास्त असल्यामुळे ते त्यांच्या जबड्यापेक्षा जास्त मोठे भक्ष्यदेखील गिळू शकतात, यामुळे अनेक सापांना दरवर्षी मारले जाते.

          Snakes are elongated, limbless reptiles of the suborder Serpentes. Like all other squamates, snakes are ectothermic, amniote vertebrates covered in overlapping scales. Many species of snakes have skulls with several more joints than their lizard ancestors, enabling them to swallow prey much larger than their heads. To accommodate their narrow bodies, snakes' paired organs appear one in front of the other instead of side by side, and most have only one functional lung. Some species retain a pelvic girdle with a pair of vestigial claws on either side of the cloaca. Lizards have independently evolved elongate bodies without limbs or with greatly reduced limbs at least twenty-five times via convergent evolution, leading to many lineages of legless lizards. These resemble snakes, but several common groups of legless lizards have eyelids and external ears, which snakes lack, although this rule is not universal.
