Solution

The correct option is A Tortoise
Tortoise doesn't have teeth, their mouths have tough and pointy edges that function pretty effectively for their biting purposes. These mouth edges operate similarly to the bills of birds. River terrapins possess mouth "extras" that the bulk of turtles, including tortoises, don't have. Their top jaws feature tough, bony plates that assist them in grinding their food down, whether mollusks or vegetation. These plates are called as secondary palates.
So, the correct answer is option A.
