OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I am trying to figure out the relationship.. piscine -- of or concerning fish serpentine -- of or concerning snakes how are they related ? they are not both reptiles.. ursine -- of or relating to bears leonine -- of or resembling lions these are both mammals canine -- dogs caper -- skip or dance no relation lionize -- give a lot of attention to equitation -- horsemanship and horse riding I am not sure..but my guess would be : ursine:serpentine....comparing animals ??
