Shape and structure of teeth.

Explanation:

The structure and shape of teeth varies from species to species and it greatly reflects the mode of nutrition in them.

For example, Carnivores have  long sharp pointed teeths with long canines as they need to pierce and tear the raw flesh.

The omnivores exhibit different types of teeth  like molars, premolars, canines and incisors with different shapes and size because they feed on both plants and animals and are required to cut, tear and chew their food.

Herbivores lack the canines, but have sharp and large incisors along with large molars as they need to cut their food and grind them properly.

Covalent or ionic: transfer of electrons<br> covalent or ionic: sharing of electrons
belka [17]

When two atoms react, they form either of two kinds of bond, ionic bonds or covalent bonds.

Ionic bonds are the type of bonds where there is transfer of electrons from one atom to another.  The electrons are removed and from one atom and attached to  another. A good example is salt which is composed of sodium and chlorine. Sodium readily loses one of its electrons and chlorine readily accepts it. Before losing the electron, sodium has a positive charge, but then becomes negatively charged after giving up the electron. Chlorine has a positive charge before gaining the electron but becomes negatively charged after gaining the electron. These opposite charges between sodium and chlorine attract the two elements together to form the ionic bond.

Covalent bonds are the kind of bonds formed when two atoms share electrons. Here there is sharing, none of the atoms loses an electron and none gains. A good example is water which is formed when oxygen  shares two electrons, each with an atom of hydrogen.

 The Oxygen atom forms two covalent bonds with the pair of hydrogen atoms.
