Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
The number of pre-molar teeth in cattle is 12.
Cattle are placed in a cattle crush to restrain them before inspecting the mouth and amount of teeth that each animal has.
Cattle have six premolars and six molars on both top and bottom jaws for a total of twenty-four molars. The teeth of cattle are suited primarily for grinding, and they use their rough tongues to grasp grass and then nip it off between their incisors and the dental pad.
