cheetahs and other preditors have sharp pointed teeth for biting and killing but herbivores such as hippopotumisses have flat teeth that are perfect for grinding up leaves and roots
The teeth in question are called the canines.
Herbivores have flat teeth for grinding plants, carnivores have sharp teeth for tearing meat, and omnivores have a mix of both for eating plants and meat. Their teeth differ in structure and function to suit their diets.
Most animals eat raw meat where as we eat cooked meat the raw meat is tougher. And some animals chew on bones.
yes
Dogs eat meat, and sometimes eat grass as well. If you are asking about all the animals, and whether they eat grass/vegetation or meat, see the links below. The lists are too long to copy here.
They are called Omnivores. They eat both meat and plants. Some examples are:Horses,bears and rats ^_^
Animals with flat teeth typically eat plants and vegetation. They use their flat teeth to grind and chew plant material effectively. Some examples of animals with flat teeth include herbivores like cows, horses, and elephants.
No. You have teeth for grinding and different teeth for tearing.
because they eat different types of food, eg sheep and wolfs will have different teeth because wolves need sharp teeth to tear through meat and sheep need blunt teeth to chomp on grass
the same way we do....
Carnivores are meat eating animals. They have sharp teeth to stab off their prey(meat). They have sharp claws which are used to kill them. they use their premolar teeth to grind and chop the meat and make it easy to swallow.
Yes, carnivores have teeth that tear while herbivores have crushing teeth. If you look at a dog's or cat's teeth, that is what meat eating animals teeth look like. A horse or cow have teeth that crush and their teeth show that. Our teeth are both so we are called omnivores.
