Question

How does the broad feet of camel helps them to walk easily

Open in App
Solution

Camels can walk easily in the desert because of their wide feet. Their wide feet allow the weight of their body to act on a larger surface of land reducing the pressure exerted on the land by the camel. We can say this as we know that pressure exerted and area are inversely proportionate. And Their huge feet help them to walk on sand without sinking into it.
