Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizards (the scaled group, Squamata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).
Snakes have two legs but a long time ago they had claws to help them slither along. Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scales which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.
Snakes often sun bathe on rocks in the warm weather. This is because snakes are cold-blooded; they need the suns warmth to heat their bodies up.
Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in trees, some live in water, but most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass and in old logs.
A snakes diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, mice and other snakes. The Anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs.

Paddlefish is the common name for the ray-finned fish. It is characterised by an elongated, paddle-like snout with minute barbels, a large mouth with minute teeth and along gill rakers.
There are only two modern species of these fish, i.e. the plankton-feeding American paddlefish ( Polyodon spathula ) and the piscivorous Chinese paddlefish (Psephurus gladius).
Paddlefish are not closely related to sharks. However, they have several body parts that resemble those of sharks such as their skeletons and deeply forked heterocercal tail fins.
Paddlefish provide important economic, ecological and aesthetic values. During the last century, paddlefish and sturgeon have been commercially exploited for their eggs (roe) called caviar.

Scientists believe that people inherit their affection for the scent of rain from ancestors who relied on rainy weather. Therefore, what makes rain smell so nice? There are several scents associated with rainfall that people find pleasing. One of these odours is called petrichor.
Several plants secrete volatile oils during dry periods. These oils are the compound of chemical organisms. It makes the oils the compound of chemical organisms. It makes the oils have tiny molecules and can be easily distilled in the atmosphere. When the rains fall, these oils are released into the air.
The second reaction that creates petrichor occurs from soil-dwelling bacteria. Those bacteria, known as Actinomycetes, produce chemicals. The chemicals are released. These aromatic compounds combine to create the pleasant petrichor scent when rain hits the ground.
Another scent associated with rain is ozone. During a thunderstorm, lightning can split the oxygen and nitrogen molecules in the atmosphere. They can recombine into nitrate oxide in turn. This substance interacts with other chemicals in the atmosphere to form ozone. It has a sharp smell faintly reminiscent of chlorine.
