Some creatures have the ability to adapt to and survive in harsh environments. These creatures have certain special adaptive characteristics that allow them to survive.
Explanation:
- Deserts are quite hot during the day and very chilly at night. Deserts also receive relatively little rainfall. Camels are known as desert ship.
- Camels are well adapted to deserts because they have some distinguishing characteristics: They have big, flat feet that allow them to spread their weight on the sand.
- They can go for long periods of time without water since they lose relatively little water through pee and perspiration.
- They can withstand temperatures of up to 42°C and have a significant surface area to volume ratio to enhance heat dissipation.
- Camels are renowned as "ships of the desert" because of the adaptations that allow them to live in the desert.
