Solution

The correct option is B Swallow the whole food
Snakes are carnivorous. Snakes do not have the right kind of teeth to chew their food so they eat their catch whole. Their jaw is structured in such a way that it allows the mouth to open wider than their own body in order to swallow their prey whole.

So, the correct option is B.
