Solution

The animals living in desert store water in muscles, connective tissue of the hump and water cells of the stomach. Animals show physiological adaptations such as losing minimum water through urine. In camel, which is a desert animal, such types of adaptations are seen. In the kidney, there are longer loops of Henle in the nephrons for more re-absorption of water.
