Which of the following animal is heat resistant?

A. Cow

B. Buffalo

C. Sheep

D. Camel

Answer: Option D

Solution (By Examveda Team)

Camel is heat resistant.
Camels and many other desert animals are uniquely adapted to conserve water and other fluids to survive intense heat for long periods.
The camel's thick coat insulates it from the intense heat radiated from desert sand, a shorn camel must sweat 50% more to avoid overheating. Also the camel's long legs help by keeping its body farther from the ground, which can heat up to 70°C (158°F).
