Solution
The correct option is
C
Fat
Camels can go weeks at a time without needing to drink water. This is one of their adaptability to cope with xeric (desert) conditions.
A camel's hump actually stores fat, it does not hold water at all.
This fat is utilized as food when the camel gets nothing to eat.
So, the correct answer is option C.
