this myth backed up by science explanation. A snake’s nervous system will still
be functional for approximately 10 to 12 hours after they are pronounced dead.
So probably that is where the myth or saying “a snake wont die til the sun goes
down” came from. Because 10 to 12 hours is enough time from the morning for the
sun to set down, and the nervous system will be completely dysfunctional and

snake does not bite you or attack you is to kill it, cut off its head and bury
it so that its nervous system will be readily dysfunctional.</span>
Anton Chekhov conceived of this play, which turned out to be his last, as a comedy,designating it “A Comedy in Four Acts” and even emphasizing to the Moscow Art Theatre that the last act should be “merry and frivolous.” He suggested that some portions were even farcical. Nevertheless, most interpretations and theatrical productions have emphasized its tragic aspects. It is understandable why the playwright’s intentions have been largely disregarded; the subject is a serious and depressing one including the family’s loss of their ancestral home and removal from it and other sad developments as well. The destruction of the orchard also represents the destruction of illusions—sad, to be sure, but perhaps hopeful.
