Question

To examine the oral cavity of a snake, a is used.
A)wood tongue depressor
B)back end of a spoon
C)soft pliable speculum
D)gloved finger

Accepted Answer

A soft, pliable speculum is the best choice for examining the oral cavity of a snake as it is specifically designed for this purpose and can be inserted without causing harm or discomfort to the snake. Using a wood tongue depressor, the back end of a spoon, or a gloved finger can potentially harm the snake and will not provide as clear of a view of the oral cavity.
