Solution
The correct option is B Pulp The teeth are composed of three basic structures present: the outer hard covering called the enamel, the hard inner part called the dentine and the soft tissue present called the pulp. The pulp is the nourishment source of the dentine. It is composed of the cells and blood vessels and nerves that occupy the cavity present in the center of the tooth.
