where does the snake more faster...in land or in water?

Really depends on the species because for instance you have the sea snakes that really spend all their time in the water, and are quite graceful. Then you have the black mamba which is the fastest land snake, and man is it quick. But then you have those large bodied snakes like the green anaconda where they tend to spend more time in the water because the water helps them to support their own body, and so while they are not exactly graceful on either land or water, they are not slow in either case.

5-10 MPH is about average. Also, try "drifting" a live sardine or pogey. Look for "weed-lines" and "clear" water.\n\nAnd for all those people who think we are fishing for "Dolphin's"; there is a fish called Mahi-Mahi, Dorado, and "dolphin". We are not fishing for "mammal" type "dolphin".

Does a snake have legs?

While the cheetah is the fastest living land animal, there are many birds which are much faster.  Falcons have been noted, often achieving 200 or so mph while stooping.\n\nI believe the fastest bird in level flight is the spine-tailed swift of Asia, Africa and Australia, which can reach 106 mph.

well if you are exactly in the middle, then any way you go will take just as long right?\n\nthe fastest way out of there would be jumping out cutting your leg and wait for a shark.. you'll be dead, but not in the middle of the ocean anymore

There are snakes in Hawaii. I don't know who told you that there aren't but they have misinformed you. See the link below.\n\nThere are no LAND snakes in Hawaii for the simple reason that the Hawaain islands have never been close to any land where snakes live. No land snake could swim to Hawaii because it was too far away.\n\nThe idea that it somehow has to do with Hawaii resulting from lava flows or a lack of sea level changes is way off base. \n\nNew Zealand is not a volcanic island, and is instead a microcontinent with its own plate. But New Zealand has no snakes either. \n\nIreland is also not a volcanic island and Ireland was formed by sea level changes, but Ireland has no snakes either.

The heaviest living snake is a Burmese Python weighing 182.76 kg (403 lb.) It is 21 years old, 8.23-m (27 ft) long, and has a girth of 71.12 cm (28 in) Known as "Baby", she lives at the Serpent Safari Park in Gurnee, Illinois, USA.\n\nThe longest snake was a reticulated python (Python reticulates) of southeast Asia, Indonesia, and the Philippines regularly exceeds 6.25 m (20 ft 6 in). The record length is 10 m (32 ft 9.5 in), for a specimen shot in Celebes, Indonesia, in 1912.

Cheetah is the fastest animal on land.

Regardless of the way of movement, peregrine falcon is the fastest. If you are trying to ask the fastest by way of running then cheetah is the fastest.\n\n>>The fastest animal/ bird is called peregrine falcon which can fly at the speed of 100-200 miles per hour. \n>>Fastest marine animal is blue whale which swims 30 miles per hour).\n>>Fastest land animal is cheetah which can run 70 miles per hour. \n>>Fastest fish is sailfish which can swim 68 miles per hour. \n>>Fastest insect is dragonfly which can fly 36 miles per hour.♥

if the longest snake is what you mean then that may be the anaconda (larger than the boa constricter)and i think it may be found in the jungles of borneo or some south american country and the females are larger than the males

the Green Turtle is probably the fastest swimmer in short sprints, but the Leatherback turtle once it gets up to speed can reach speeds around 20 or 22 miles per hour.

This question can be answered quite easily, if you can consider this idea: Suppose you have some amount of water which is contained in a tub. You bury your hand inside the water and make some forward movement, obviously, the waves of the water flow directly in one direction. Whereas, if you oppose the motion of these moving waves, by burying another hand of your's and pushing some water against an already moving set of waves of water, the first set of waves defintely will decrease their speed, as being opposed by an other ENERGY. \n               So, considering this example, sound waves' problem can be solved: If you yell against the wind, your sound waves are being OPPOSED, hence their speed slows down, and they tend fade off travelling LESS distance. If the sound is going in the direction of the wind, it will definitely tend to move FASTER(when compared to it, moving against the wind)as it is NOT BEING OPPOSED by any other form of energy. \nThat's it mostly,\ncheers,\nDa Vinci.

Piranha is so fast when hunt and the eel don't have time to discharge.Piranha is an omnivore so it's not  cannibal,and they are much more smarter than the eel to focus to the hunting target.The eel can't stun them,and finnaly the poor eel must swim away for its live or it's will be destroyed by the school of piranha.

It's a Wurlitzer organ in one of those snake-handling Pentacostal Churches in Arkansas.\n\nI think they sense vibrations on their tongues; pit vipers have special organs that will pick up sounds.\n\nHere's some good material from a website:\n\nMelissa Kaplan's\nHerp Care Collection\nLast updated September 6, 2003\n\nDid you hear the one about...?\n\n©1994 Melissa Kaplan, News from the North Bay\n \n"Years ago I found a reference to snakes' ability to hear, but, failing to write it down, could never locate it again. Seigel and Collins, in their Snakes: Ecology and Behavior, were not enormously enlightening: "Although there is meager behavioral evidence for hearing of airborne sounds, there is physiological evidence from several species in six families. In addition, attachment of the quadrate to the inner ear suggests that vibrational stimuli could be transmitted by the jaw. However, vibrational cues could just as likely be detected by tangoreceptors on the venter of the snake" (New York: McGraw-Hill, Inc. p. 121, 1993), which most of us already know ('hearing' by feeling vibrations transmitted up from the ground into the belly muscles).\n\n"I was pleased to see a short note about snake hearing ability in this month's The Vivarium (6[3]:24-25). In the "Ask the Experts" column, Winston Card responds to a snake hearing question by explaining that, while snakes lack external and middle ear structures (including the tympanum, or ear drum), they do have inner ear structures which have been shown experimentally to receive airborne sound waves.\n\n"Thus, like many other animals, snakes have two ways of detecting sounds: earthborne and airborne. The earthborne vibrations are passed through the belly muscles to special receptors along the spine and thus transmitted to the brain. Airborne sounds are transmitted to the lung from the skin receptors to the eighth cranial nerve and inner ear.\n\n"Most snakes can hear a person speaking in a normal tone of voice in a quiet room at a distance of about 10 feet (3 m). Two of my snakes have always responded to my calling their names; it's nice to know I wasn't imagining it!"

It depends on the temperature of the water and the air but if they are the same, then the ice in the water will melt faster because water is a better conductor for heat.
