Each element of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViT7pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Snake</a> is a limbless, scaly, vermiform reptile with a long, narrow, tapering, mostly smooth body. Snakes in many species have poisonous and sometimes fatal bites. Snakes live on land, in trees, in fresh water, and in the sea (sea snakes). <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViT7pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Snake</a> constitutes a biological suborder (also called Serpentes or Ophidia).

An appendage is a body part that is connected to, and extends from, an animal's <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVkJjpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Torso</a> (or from another of the animal's appendages, such as a hand extending from an arm). Each appendage is used by the <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViwMZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Animal</a> for one or more functions. Altogether, appendages serve a wide variety of functions, including locomotion, manipulation, sensing, fighting, scratching, heat dissipation, and balance. Note that appendages are not crucial for the life of the animal; thus a <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjLF5wpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Neck_AnimalBodyPart</a> or <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVi6YJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Head_AnimalBodyPart</a> is not considered to be an appendage. The appendage attached to the rear end of an animal. Tail-BodyPart tail The appendage attached to the rear end of an animal. Tail-BodyPart tail type of unique anatomical part UniqueAnatomicalPartType A default pairwise disjoint collection of collections (see <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViA4pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">SiblingDisjointCollectionType</a>) and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjn2pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AnimalBodyPartType</a>. Instances are types of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVraoZwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">AnimalBodyRegion</a> that occur uniquely in the organisms (<a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVjE1pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Organism_Whole</a>) that have them. For example, <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVi6YJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Head_AnimalBodyPart</a> is an instance of this collection.

The predicate <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rwLSVCpwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">prettyString</a> is used by the code which generates CycL to English paraphrases, but its applicability is not restricted to this use. prettyString fish An instance of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvViXTJwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">BiologicalClass</a>, and a specialization of <a href="http://sw.opencyc.org/2008/06/10/concept/Mx4rvVil5pwpEbGdrcN5Y29ycA" class="cyc_term">Vertebrate</a>.
