A mammal's teeth correspond to their function: mainly, eating. Herbivorous mammals have evolved a larger number of molars and fewer canines. Carnivorous mammals have evolved a larger number of canines and fewer molars. Omnivores typically have a large amount of each. Anteaters have no teeth as they obtain their diet of ants via their long, sticky tongue, and do not chew their food.
(Were you referring to why a given kind and a given size of tooth may have different shapes in different mammals? It depends on the example.)
it's probably a meat or leaf eater if you think about it.
They have herbivore teeth which is used for eating plants. They have carnivore teeth which is used for eating meat.Also have omnivore teeth used for eating both plants and animals.
because of the GRAVITY...
sharks dont go on diet so i cant do that
no it does not is is based on what and how much it eats
if the mammal's teeth are strong they are more capable of eating stronger prey
no Sharks have pointy teeth, suitable for a carnivorous diet. It would be more accurate to say that the carnivorous diet determines the shape of the teeth, rather than to say that the teeth determine the diet.
how sharp is the hammerhaed sharks teeth
tiger sharks teeth are about 3inches long
yes white sharks have cutting edges and blue sharks have curved teeth
Sharks have 5 or more rows of teeth. Humans only have 20 baby teeth and 32 adult teeth. Sharks can re-grow teeth. Humans only get 2 sets (milk teeth and permanent teeth). Sharks have serrated edges on their teeth. Shark teeth are not attached to the jaw. Humans bite and chew with their teeth. Sharks use their teeth to rip their prey apart.
ALL SHARKS HAVE WHITE TEETH, WHEN THE TEETH FALL OUT AND GET OLDER THEY TURN BLACK
No, Sharks don't gnaw or chew, the sharks teeth are for cutting, some species of shark have serrated teeth for an even more effective cutting action. Also, really old shark have no means of obtaining dentures which is basically a death sentence unless they switch to vegetarian diet, but this is a rare shark indeed.
Yes, sharks' teeth are breakable just like us humans.
Great White shark teeth as are those from all sharks are white. Black shark teeth are fossilized ones. The most common color for fossilized shark teeth is a black root with a grayish crown.
Whale Sharks - No teeth
