A) is the correct option
Explanation:
- Animals have great adaptations that help them live in even the most extreme environments
- Camels can thrive in some of the hottest and driest places on Earth,their legs never burn when they kneel on hot sand due to thick leathery patches on their knees
- They can survive for an entire week without water but, at the same time, they can drink 32 gallons of water at once and store it
- Their body temperature ranges from 93 °F to 107 °F, so they don’t need to sweat very often and can conserve water this way
- The spongy bones in their nose absorb excess moisture to keep every drop of water in, so the air they breathe out is dry air
- The key to survive in hot climates is not only to keep the body from overheating but preventing water loss is equally very important
- Animals also expel dry air reabsorbing the water in their breath before it has a chance to be expelled
