Solution

The correct option is C Enamel
The enamel of the teeth is the hardest and most highly mineralized substance in the body. It covers the outer layer of each tooth and it is the most visible part of the tooth. The enamel is made up mostly of minerals, primarily hydroxyapatite.
So, the correct answer is 'Enamel'
