ANEK [815]

Answer:

A camel's humps are incredibly important for the animal's survival in a tough environment like a desert. Without its humps, a camel would be more likely to overheat and sweat—but it's still the oval-shaped blood cells that help the camel retain so much water, not the humps.

Camels are usually between 6 and 7 feet in height and 9 to 11 feet in length. They can weigh up to 2,300 pounds. Other physical characteristics of camels include long legs, long necks, and a protruding snout with big lips.
