Suppose you uncovered the fossilized skull of an animal. How could you use its teeth to help determine whether it was a carnivore or a herbivore?

Answer:

The Teeth

Step-by-step explanation:

Carnivores have teeth that are more for ripping and shredding a prey's flesh. They are sharper. Herbivores have more square and flat teeth for mashing leaves and grass.
