Explanation:
The following adaptations are found in camel.
- It has a hump on the back which is filled with fat. This food is utilised when the camel does not get anything to eat.
- It has long legs to keep the body away from the heat of the sand.
- It excretes very little water from its body through dry dung.
- They have wide feet for walking in sand.
- They have long eyelashes and thin, slit nostrils that they can close to protect them from blowing sand.
