Answer:
The types of teeth the given category of creatures have are as follows:
1) Carnivores: Long pointed canines, few molars at the back and very some sharp incisors
2) Herbivores: Sharp incisors, No canines and flatter molars.
3) Omnivores – All incisors, molars and canines present.
Explanation:
- Herbivores have teeth that are very specialized in eating plants. Because plant substances are often difficult to break down, herbivore molars are wider and flatter, crushing food and helping digestion. Herbivore incisors are sharp for tearing plants, but may not be present in both the maxilla and mandible.
- Carnivores have teeth that are very different from herbivores. This makes sense as they also have different diets. Carnivores use their teeth to kill their prey before eating it. Sharp incisors and pointed canines are perfectly designed to incapacitate and eat. Dogs are easy to identify because they have long, pointed teeth on either side of the incisors. The number of molars is less than in other animals. This is mainly because much of the work is done by the teeth present in front of the mouth.
- Humans are omnivorous. In other words, we eat various foods such as meat and plants. A quick glance at your teeth reveals the different shapes and sizes of teeth that omnivores can have. Human teeth do not accurately indicate what is visible in the mouth of all omnivores. All omnivorous animals have teeth that are specially adapted to the diet of these animals. Animals with human-like teeth that grind molars and tear incisors and canines are said to have orthodontic dentition. Each tooth is designed for a specific role in processing the food ingested.
