A cobra hood is made of skin and muscle. When a cobra is threatened or feels aggressive, it will spread out the skin and muscles around its neck, which looks like a hood. The skin is supported by long, movable ribs and is covered in scales. The inside of the hood has a distinctive pattern that is used to ward off predators or attract a mate.

The average lifespan of a tortoise varies by species, but generally, they can live between 50 to 100 years, with some larger species reaching even longer lifespans.

A cobra's hood is made of loose skin and muscle that can be expanded and spread out when the snake is threatened or agitated. When the muscles contract, the skin stretches to create the distinctive hood shape, which is used as a warning display.

A cobra's hood is made of elongated ribs and connective tissue. When the cobra feels threatened or is preparing to strike its prey, it can spread its ribs and flatten its body, causing the skin between the ribs to stretch and form the distinctive hood shape.
