- D.
  
  D. mandibular 2nd premolar
Correct Answer
A. A. maxillary 1st premolar

Explanation
Chapter 17 p..277, 2nd ed., p..225, 3rd ed. (Table 17-1 Anatomical Information on Permanent Premolars) under Distinguishing right from left states," Maxillary first premolar mesial features: marginal groove".

Correct Answer
D. D. mandibular 2nd premolar

Explanation
See Chapter 17 p. 290 in 2nd ed, pages 236-237 in 3rd ed. Figures 17-29, 17-30 & 17-31 under permanent right second molar for views and descriptions of two and three cusp types of mandibular 2nd premolar.

- B.
  
  B. maxillary 2nd premolar
- C.
  
  C. mandibular 1st premolar
- D.
  
  D. mandibular 2nd premolar
Correct Answer
B. B. maxillary 2nd premolar

Explanation
Ch 17 p. 283 in 2nd ed., p. 229 in 3rd ed. under Proximal View Features states," the mesial surface of a maxillary second premolar is similar to that of a maxillary first premolat, except that the cusps are closer to being the same size and no mesiomarginal depression".
Ch 17 pg. 284 under Occlusal Table Components states, "The central groove is shorter on a maxillary second premolar than on a maxillary first premolar (Figure 17-18). A maxillary second premolar has numerous supplemental grooves radiating from the central groove".

Correct Answer
C. C. mandibular 1st premolar

Explanation
Chapter 17 p. 286 in 2nd ed., p. 233, 3rd ed. states," The crown outline of the mandibular first premolar is diamond-shaped from the occlusal, with a notch in the mesial outline at the mesiolingual groove (Figure 17-22)
