Solution

The correct option is C

Adipose


The hump of the camel is made up of a connective tissue (adipose) which stores fat to survive in adverse and dry conditions in the desert. Even the blubber of a whale consists of adipose tissue. The main function of this tissue is to store energy in the form of fat. It also cushions and insulate the body and provides protective padding around the organ.
