Solution

The correct option is A Premaxilla
  • The premaxilla is one of a pair of small cranial bones at the very tip of the upper jaw of many animals, usually, but not always, bearing teeth.
  • In humans, they are fused with the maxilla and usually termed as the incisive bone (the portion of the maxilla adjacent to the incisors). Hence, Incisor is present in premaxilla of the human jaw.
So, the correct answer is 'premaxilla'.
