Not all animals have more than one cell. However, most multicellular animals do have a digestive system which may have 1 or more openings. Most of the "more" evolved species of animals on this planet do have specialized mouthparts for the manipulation of food material, but not all. If you mean more along the lines of a fleshy, muscular protuberance from the mandible into the mouth cavity, than your scope is rather limited at least relatively speaking. One could consider the radula of mollusks to fit this definition even though it is usually also covered with chitinous "teeth".

No, definitely not. Vertebrates have tongues (mammals, birds, amphibians, reptiles, fish)

No tongues for arthropods, mollusks, echinoderms, worms, cnidarians, sponges, or any other invertebrates that I can think of.
