Solution

The correct option is B Adipose
The camel's hump is not a water storage organ but a thick hump of fat containing adipose tissue to protect the animal's internal organ from the heat of the desert. The oxidation of fats stored here yields both energy and water.
Therefore, the correct answer is option D.
