Solution

The correct option is C

camel


The correct option is C.

Explanation of the correct option :

  1. Camel has a brown-colored body which helps it to blend with the surroundings.
  2. It has long eyelashes which protect the eyes during sand storms. It can close its nostrils to prevent sand from entering the nasal cavity.
  3. The hump of a camel stores fats and helps the animal to survive without food for several months.
  4. It has thick lips which help it to eat prickly desert plants like cacti without hurting itself.
  5. It has well-padded wide feet which enable it to walk on hot sand.

Final answer: Long eyelashes to prevent sand particles from entering the eyes are found in camels.
