Solution

The correct option is B Hump
Camels are adapted to live in extreme environments, both hot and cold. Unlike a lot of other mammals, most of a camel's fat is stored in its humps, which allows for better thermoregulation. It makes it easier for them to release heat from their bodies in hot weather. Camels rarely sweat.
