The correct option is B Both A and B
Diastema is a term that refers to the gap between two teeth. A common feature found across many mammals species, the primary cause of this is the imbalance between the size of the jaw and teeth. While the gap is generally between the incisors and canines in the case of Rodents and lagomorphs, in human beings this gap is generally between the upper incisors.
