Q141 / 180 · NEET 2015 (Phase 2) · Zoology

The primary dentition in human differs from permanent dentition in not having one of the following types of teeth:

  • Correct answer
    A
    Premolars
  • B
    Molars
  • C
    Incisors
  • D
    Canine

Solution

The dental formula of human adult (permanent dentition) ICPMICPM=21232123

The dental formula of the child (primary dentition) ICPMICPM = 21022102

So premolars and third molar (last molar) are absent in primary dentition.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
