Teeth in Amphibians are:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C Homodont, Pleurodont and Polyphyodont
Pleurodont teeth are attached on the inner side and upper side of the jawbone that brings the larger surface area of the tooth in contact with the jawbone and hence attachment is stronger, as found in amphibians.Homodont dentition is found in the majority of vertebrates such as fish, amphibians, and reptiles in which all teeth are functionally and anatomically of the same type.
Polyphyodont dentition involves the replacement of teeth from time to time several times in life so that, jaws are never left without teeth as found in amphibians.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
