[summary writing] Camels live in deserts, where it is hot and dry. Camels have
adapted and found ways to help them survive in deserts.
They have a thick coat of hair that protects them from the
sun. They have wide, soft feet, so they can walk for a long
time in the hot sand.
Several adaptations help a camel live in a desert. Their large
feet spread their weight on the sand when they are walking.
When there is food and water, a camel can eat and drink large
amounts and store it as fat in the hump. Then, when there is
no food or water, the camel uses the fat for energy, and the
hump becomes small and soft. A camel's waste contains very
little water. Even the water from the camel's breath fiqws
back into its mouth. The camels have bushy eyebrows that
don't let the sand go in their eyes in a sandstorm. It has a long
slender neck in order to reach high leaves such as palm trees,
and rubbery patches on the belly and knees to protect the
skin when kneeling and sitting on the hot sand. These form
after five years of age.
A camel has a naturally adapted temperature regulation - it
can change its bodily temperature by six degrees Celsius
either way. It has two sets of eyelashes, dosing muscles in
the nasal passages with silted nostrils, hairy ears and tough,
leathery skin to protect the camels skin in vital emergencies
such as a sandstorm. It has thick rubbery lips to eat dry,
prickly plants and a large, haired tail to swat pests such as
mosquitos and flies,
The toes are large black, which help it to jump in the deep
desert sand. There are two types of camels: the Dromedary
(and the Bacterian.​

Camels have numerous anatomical and physiological quirks which allow them to live in the hot and dry climate of the desert. Camels have specialized feet helping them to move easily in the sandy terrain. In addition to the natural thermoregulatory mechanism, almost every part of its body is helpful in its survival in the desert.
