Camel is a desert animal, that can live without water for many days, because A) it does not need water B) water is formed in the body due to oxidation of fat C) it has the water sac in the walls of the lumen of stomach D) All of the above
Option D) Camels, in ideal conditions, can go 6-7 months without water but as the temperature rises they have to drink water more often. Camels are well known for their humps. They do not, however, literally store water in them as is commonly believed, though they do serve this purpose through roundabout means. Their humps are a reservoir of fatty tissue, while water is stored in their blood. However, when this tissue is metabolised, it is not only a source of energy, but yields through reaction with oxygen from the air 1111 g of water per 1000 g of fat.
