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 to disperse their weight on the sand.
  • They can go without water for long periods of time since they lose very little water through pee and perspiration.
  • They have a large surface area to volume ratio to maximise heat loss. They have thick fur on the top of the body for shade and thin fur on the remainder of the body to allow easy heat loss.

Camels are renowned as "ship of the desert" because of the adaptations that allow them to live in the desert.
