Question

Why do camels have large flat feet ?

Short Note

Solution

Camels have large flat feet and thus a larger surface area. Hence, the pressure exerted by the camel’s large flat feet on the surface of the sand is small and the feet do not sink in sand. Therefore, they can walk easily on sand.
