Great job!

The only correction is "that" in these lines is a conjunction, not a pronoun.

So, jaws that bite
is noun conjunction verb

That's weird. I looked at the dictionary link. I didn't know that could be conjunction

Thank you
Many words function as more than one part of speech.

You're welcome.
It seems to me, unless it functions as an expletive, "that" is much closer to being a pronoun than a conjunction. Notice that you can replace the word "that" with the pronoun "which" and the meaning is essentially the same. Conjunctions join parallel words or phrases; here we have nouns and verbs --jaws bite, and claws catch.
