Solution
The correct option is B Canines
There are 4 different types of teeth. At the front of the mouth are eight thin, straight teeth called incisors – four at the top and four at the bottom. They help you to bite into food. On each side of the upper and lower incisors is a single canine tooth, making them a four in total. These are sharp and dagger-shaped teeth that help in cutting or shearing food. Premolars have a flattened top and are used to chew food. Next to the premolars are the molars and these are the widest, flattest teeth. These teeth grind food.
