Camels have adapted in many ways to survive in the harsh desert environment. They can go long periods without food or water. Camels have a tough lining in their mouth that allows them to eat sharp, thorny desert plants. They store fat in their hump and can rechew food. Camels can also go long periods without water and drink up to 46 liters at once when water is available. They have adaptations like closable nostrils, eyelashes, and hairy ears to protect from sand and sun. Camels regulate their body temperature to reduce sweating and grow wool in winter. Their thick knees and padded hooves allow walking on hot sand and traveling long distances to carry goods.

1. Camels adapts perfectly in his harsh
environment (Desert) ,he is often called
“ship of the desert”
Camels are working animals especially suited
to their desert habitat.

2. ADAPTATION TO
FOOD

3. Due to the harsh environment, plants in the
desert are dry or have thorns, but this plants
are the only food for the camels to eat since
he is a herbivore.
Camels adapts to this by having a tough
lining of the mouth so tough that the sharp
thorns cannot push through the skin.

4. As we know in the desert. It’s really hard for
plants to grow there, so there’s only a few
plants for the camels to find and eat.
Since camels has a few food to find, they
store fats In their hump/s to use it later.

5. A camel does not chew its food well before
swallowing it. The animal's stomach has three
sections, one of which stores the poorly
chewed food. This food, is later returned to
the mouth in a ball-like glob, and the camel
chews it. The chewed food is then swallowed
and goes to the other parts of the stomach to
be completely digested.

6. ADAPTATION TO
SCARCITY OF
WATER

7. As we know that the desert doesn’t have that
much of water because it has a hot climate
and it doesn’t rain much there.
Camels can go without water for days or even
months. Camels need less water in winter
when the weather is cool. The also can drink
up to 46 liters in drinking session!

8. ADAPTATION TO
WEATHER

9. The climate in the desert is not good for
surviving. Winds sometimes can make a
sandstorm which cares a big amount of sand in
the air.
Camels Adapts to this by:
Camels’ Nostrils can be closed to Keep out
blowing sand.
Camels have Two rows of long eyelashes
to Protect it against blowing sand and the sun
Camel's ears are covered with hair, even on the
inside. The hair helps keep out sand or dust that
might blow into the ears.

10. ADAPTATION TO
TEMPERATURE

11. As EVERYONE knows, the temperature in the
desert in a normal day in summer can go up
to 50º Celsius.
Camels rise their body temperature by as
much as 6 Celsius degrees during the heat of
the day and then cools down at night. This
happens so they don’t sweat water.
When it’s too hot, Camels sometimes decide
to rest to cool down

12. In the desert at night, sometimes it gets very
cold and could reach 0º Celsius or any cold
places.
Camels adapts to this by growing some wool
in the winter and then shed in the summer.
The wool of the camels is so good at
providing heat yet humans.

13. When camels rest, they have to sit down on
their knees ,but due to the hot temperature.
Sands becomes hot too.
Camels have Thick leathery patches on it’s
knees to Protect it from getting burn when it
kneels on the hot desert sand

14. ADAPTATION TO
THE TERRAINS OF
THE DESERT

15. The desert (camel’s environment) is mostly
consisted of sand which is hard for walking in
Camels adapts to this by having a flat
leathery hooves like a pad on their feet.
Hooves spread out when the camel places its
feet on the ground and prevent the camel
from sinking into the sand. Which makes
walking easier for it.

16. The desert is a pretty huge area for camels to
travel in it and carry it’s own weight.
Camels have a long strong legs that could
help it travel for a long distances and carry
heavy weights.
Humans used camels for transporting and
carrying their goods for trading ,because it
could hold out the heavy weights and the
longs roads thanks to it’s legs.

17. Animal Adaptations In Tropical Rainforests
What is Tropical Rainforest?
The tropical rainforest is a hot, moist biome
where it rains all year long.
It is abundant with many species of wildlife and
vegetation.
The world’s largest tropical rainforests are in
South America, Africa, and Southeast Asia.

18. How Have Sloths Adapted to the Tropical
Rainforests?
The sloth moves very slowly, which makes it
harder for predators to see them.
Most interestingly, because of their slow
movement, algae grows on their fur which helps
them in camouflaging with the trees.
They also have three extra
neck bones to allow them
to turn their heads at 270°.

19. This is a very useful adaptation in a world where
predators can be above or below them.
Sloths cannot walk but are good swimmers when
the rainforest floods.
Sloths have longer arms than their legs for
climbing easily and curved feet for grasping
branches firmly.
They eat leaves that are hard to digest, but their
complex stomach breaks down and ferments them
easily.

20. Animal Adaptations In Grassland
How Have Bison Adapted to the Grassland?
Bison have specialized teeth and digestive systems
that help in breaking down tough grass.
Bison drink water only once a day.
They can eat snow if liquid
water is not available.
Despite their size, they are
able to run up to 30 miles
per hour if they are faced
with a threat.
Bison sport a pair of sharp,
curved horns, which they use to fend off predators
