Correct Answer

D

Explanation

Herbivores are grass eaters that do not have canines at both the upper and lower jaws. Rather they have diastema which is a wide space which ,separates incisors from premolars. Omnivores and carnivores possess canines in addition to incisors, premolars and molars. Detritus feeders or decomposes are saprophytic bacteria and fungi that feed on dead organic matters such as faeces of animals, dead bodies of animals, cellulose of fallen leaves and trees.
