Adaptations for hot climates

• Deserts are hot by day, cold at night, and receive very little rainfall.

The camel

Camels are well adapted for survival in the desert. Their adaptations include:

• large, flat feet - to spread their weight on the sand

• thick fur on the top of the body for shade, and thin fur elsewhere to allow easy heat loss.

• a large surface area to volume ratio - to maximise heat loss

• the ability to go for a long time without water - they lose very little water through urination and perspiration

• the ability to tolerate body temperatures up to 42°C

• slit-like nostrils and two rows of eyelashes - to help keep out sand
