Solution

The correct option is B Upper incisors
Upper Incisors of the elephants make up their tusks.
The tusks are made of Ivory and used for various purposes like defence, protection, lifting objects, etc.
Lower incisors, canines and other teeth are present inside for normal functions like chewing, grinding etc.
So the correct answer is 'Upper Incisors'.
