1. A child's jaw is smaller and requires smaller teeth. That's why when we are born and we start growing out teeth, those teeth are temporary and fall out later on.
2. People needed their teeth to live. Having two sets of teeth (and periodically growing more teeth, like molars and wisdom teeth) meant that even if the front teeth rotted away, the person would still be able to eat. Dentistry hasn't been around anywhere near as long as humans have.
In many cases, it is because some are prey and some are predators. It is generally the carnivores that have sharp teeth as they need them to tear apart meat. Herbivores, on the other hand, have "duller" teeth as all they only eat plants and therefore sharp teeth would be unnecessary.
Of course, there are always exceptions, and having sharp teeth is not necessarily restricted to carnivores. The panda, which is completely herbivorous, has particularly sharp teeth, but it also has flat molars for grinding the bamboo shoots it eats.
so we can MASH our food ...and because we do not hunt for our food which means having sharp teeth is a waste of time, we don't need to fight for our food and sink our teeth onto it and hold it down. We just.......shoot it.
So they can gnaw and nibble at their food to get it into digestible pieces.
We have incisors because we are carnivores too.
Because they are herbivores so they don't need sharp teeth to bite into meat but rather grind grass with them to make it easier to swallow
Dogs have two sets of teeth: puppy and adult. They start loosing their puppy teeth usually at around 3 months and finish losing them by five or six months, at which time they have all been replaced by adult teeth.
because god wanted it that way
diploid cells have double set of chromosomes. It varies across species. For example, diploid human cell has 46 chromosomes, while a cell of carp fish has about 100 chromosomes, very roughly.
Decays
Adults have 32 teeth differentiated in 16-16 between the two jaws and are categorized in to 4 types i.e, incisors,canines,molar,premolar..This includes the wisdom teeth which are simply a third set of molars. It is possible to be born with less than 32 teeth or more than 32 teeth. If a person has had all four of their wisdom teeth removed, they will have 28 teeth. If they have also had braces, which oftentimes requires the removal of the four first bicuspid teeth, they will function in life with 24 teeth. Children have 20 teeth, once they all come in of course. By the age of 2 years most children have all of their primary (baby) teeth.20http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teeth#Anatomy Humans usually have 32 permanent teeth (and 20 primary teeth (also called deciduous, baby, or milk teeth))
No, humans only have two sets of teeth in their lifetime
Humans have two sets of teeth in their lifetime.
Yes
32
adult teeth and milk or baby teeth
The maxillary teeth and the vomerine teeth.
Dogs have canine teeth. Like humans, they get 2 sets of teeth in their lives. Hope this helps . :)
In humans, we only get two sets of teeth. Children have what are known as milk teeth and these fall out, or are knocked out accidentally. We then get our adult teeth. In some other species - such as sharks, the teeth are continuously renewed.
Yes they do. Much like humans Dogs have a set of baby teeth they shed in their youth for adult teeth that they keep for thr rest of their life. Also it would be "DOES a dog get two sets of teeth"!
if your baby teeth spoils, the permenant teeth will come out.
The number of tonsils in the human body depends on what location you are asking about, but in the mouth and throat there are 4 sets; the pharyngeal tonsils, tubal tonsils, palatine tonsils, and lingual tonsils. If you are talking about other structures that are named tonsils, there are many others such as the cerebellar tonsils.
Teeth are formed from buds present in the jaw from birth. Teeth can differ widely in their eventual number and arrangement, but almost everyone has two sets : the deciduous (primary or baby teeth) and the permanent. Humans do not form new teeth aside from those present in the jaw.
