In wet climates, a snake is more active because it does not lose as much heat via evaporation. In hot weather, a snake is more active because it can gain body heat by conduction. In cold weather, a snake is less active because the food supply is decreased. In dry climates, a snake is less active because there is less moisture in the air.arrow_forwardOf what significance is the difference in color of the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the body?
