*😳WHY❓❓❓*

=======================

 *Why Aeroplane's are white in Colour*

The main reason why aircraft are painted white or light colours is to reflect sunlight. Other colours will absorb most of the light. ... Painting a passenger plane white minimises both the heating and potential damage from solar radiation not only when the airplane is in flight, but also when it's parked on the runway.

White exteriors can enhance aircraft visibility and potentially increase its detection and avoidance by birds.

 🤔 *HOW IT WORKS* ⁉ =======================

 *DO SNAKES URINATE?* 

They do not eliminate liquid waste as a separate action. Their water intake is very low and they have evolved to need far less than warm blooded animals.

After a meal about a week later they have a bowel movement that typically is a mix of semi-formed solids along with a lesser amount of liquid waste which typically is rather clear Water conserving species have really learned to deal w/ less. No sweating or urinating fluids saves a lot for a small animal needing very little. The great majority of snakes get sufficient water in their food. Lizards do and other than a dewdrop here or there, lizards do not specifically drink. Many snakes do drink from a water source while in captivity so it is safe to assume they would also in the wild.
