Solution

  1. We can use incisors to cut and bite green apple.
    • Incisors have a sharp and flat structure that helps us to take a big chunk of food like apple.
  2. We can use molars to chew and grind cashew nuts.
    • Molars have broad surfaces and multiple peaks for grinding food.
  3. We can use canines to cut and tear the chicken fry into pieces.
    • Sharp and dagger shaped canines can bury deep into the food.
