Having two cusps or pointed projections; shaped like or resembling a bicuspid tooth.
From bi- + cuspidate (from Latin cuspidatus, pointed). Similar meaning to bicuspidal but with Latin -ate suffix, common in scientific nomenclature.
Botanists use 'bicuspidate' to describe leaf tips that split into two sharp points—it's nature's way of shedding water efficiently. The same tooth shape shows up in leaves, proving evolution finds the same good designs repeatedly.
