tooth
is one of the numerous teeth of a shark. Sharks continually shed their teeth, and some Carcharhiniformes
shed approximately 35,000 teeth in a lifetime. In some geological formations, shark's teeth are a common fossil
. These fossils can be analyzed for information on shark evolution
and biology
, especially because the teeth are often the only part of the shark to be fossilized, in fact fossil teeth comprise much of the fossil record of the Selachimorpha, extending back hundreds of millions of years.
The most ancient types of sharks date back to 450 million years ago, during the Late Ordovician period, and they are mostly known from their fossilised teeth.

I have to believe in a world outside my own mind. I have to believe that my actions still have meaning, even if I can't remember them.

I'm no different … now … where was I?
Your life is over. You're a dead man. The only thing the doctors are hoping to do is teach you to be less of a burden to the orderlies. And they'll probably never let you go home, wherever that would be. So the question is not "to be or not to be", because you aren't. The question is whether you want to do something about it.
