Solution

The correct option is C Poison fangs in snakes
Fangs are sharp, long, hollow or grooved teeth that are connected to a small sac in the snakes head behind its eyes. These sacs produce a poisonous liquid called venom. When a snake bites, venom is released and starts to work immediately to kill or paralyze the prey. Snakes use poison to kill prey, not for escape.
