No. The humps store water.
Camels store fat on there humps which makes more food and water.
Fat
Camel's humps are made up of fat. In the wild, camels eat lots of rubbish food and so the fat is very coarse, whereas in captivity they are fed good quality food and so the fat is 'squishy' and soft. This is why camel's humps flop over in captivity.
They conserve energy by storing fat in their humps.
Camels have two humps because they store fat in them as a source of energy when food and water are scarce in their desert environment.
The number of humps on a camel does not directly affect its ability to store water. Camels store fat, not water, in their humps, which serves as an energy reserve when food and water are scarce in arid environments. The fat can be converted into energy and water when needed by the camel.
A camel typically has one or two humps. The humps store fat, not water as commonly believed, which provides energy for the camel when food is scarce. This adaptation helps camels survive in arid environments by allowing them to go long periods without food.
Camel bulges are actually filled with fat. The longer a camel does not eat or is able to drink the "hump(s)" will appear deflated since it will pull from the fat store for survival.
that is where they store extra fat so that when they are stuck in the desert they have extra food to live off of.
Camel's hump contain fat which they use time to time to survive when there is no food and water.
No. Despite the lore surrounding camels and their humps, a camel's hump has nothing to do with their excellent retention of water.
If you think it's water, you're wrong! The humps on a camel's back are actually huge heaps of fat and flesh that can weigh as much as 80 pounds in a healthy camel. These humps help camels survive for weeks without food and water.
