This document discusses how an animal's mouth parts indicate what type of food it eats. Animals with flat teeth grind and chew plants, while meat-eaters have sharp pointed teeth for tearing meat. Seed-eaters have hard beaks without teeth to crack seeds. Some animals like mosquitoes have tube-like mouths called proboscises for sucking. Frogs use their long sticky tongues to catch food.
