Carnivores, like cats and dogs, are made to eat almost all meat. Their teeth are all pointy... no molars for grinding plants. Herbivores like horses and cows have front shearing teeth for tearing off grass, and molars (again, flat teeth for grinding) in the back to really grind up the plant stuff. The grinding part is important to digestion, since it's hard for stomachs to break down the cellulose in plant matter. Humans have ALL of those teeth. Front shearing teeth for biting (as into an apple), canines for tearing (like tough meat jerky) and flat molars for grinding up food, especially plants. The bicuspids between the front incisors and the canine teeth are also kind of pointy. They help with both the incisors and the canines</blockquote>
