Question:
Assertion (A): Incisors are useful in cutting the food.
Reason (R): They are chisel shaped.
Assertion (A): Incisors are useful in cutting the food.
Reason (R): They are chisel shaped.
Reason (R): They are chisel shaped.
Show Hint
Tooth shape is directly related to function — incisors (cut), canines (tear), molars (grind).

Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
Incisors are adapted to cutting action due to their sharp, chisel-shaped edge. Both statements are correct and causally linked.
