Secret of the Sea Horse: How Creature Got its Curve

Sea Horses don't have that curve in them for no reason. Although it does look cool. Researches discovered that the wavy shape evolved to help capture prey. This curve makes the creature very different then its relatives the pipefish. With this curve in the body it gives the sea horse an advantage to capture its prey, more so then if it was straight-bodied. Having the curve suggests an easier ability to move forward, as well as an advance in the length it can go in one motion. In my opinion this discovery is very interesting and makes a lot of sense. Having the curve would help creatures out more than without, and having the curve gives them an advantage to be taken for granted.
