How do the shape of your teeth demonstrate “form fits function” and what do they tell us about the dietary hab?

can anyone help me out, this is my homework.

Humans have four different forms or types of teeth:

Incisors for cutting.

Canines for tearing.

Premolars or bicuspids for crushing and tearing.

Molars for grinding.

The first two types are usually associated with carnivores and the last two with herbivores. Humans are considered omnivores.
