Adaptations in Camels 5.10A

Adaptations in Camels Adaptations are special characteristics that an organism is born with and which enable it to survive in its natural habitat. Adaptations are not developed in the course of an organism's life. The following adaptations show how a camel is specially suited to live in the desert.

Adaptations in Camels Adaptation: Two rows of long eyelashes Function: Protect against blowing sand and the sun Adaptation: Fat stored in hump(s) Function: Help it to survive long periods without food and water

Adaptations in Camels Adaptation: Thick leathery patches on knees Function: Protect it from getting burned when it kneels on the hot desert sand Adaptation: Broad, flat, leathery pads at the bottom of their hooves Function: Pads spread out when the camel places feet on the ground, preventing the camel from sinking into the sand

Adaptations in Camels Adaptation: Nostrils can be closed Function: Keep out blowing sand Adaptation: Thick fur and underwool Function: Provide warmth during cold desert nights and insulation against daytime heat

Adaptations in Camels Adaptation: Long strong legs Function: Help carry heavy loads over long distances and keep its body further away from the hot sand
