What animal is called the 'ship of the desert'?

The Dromedary Camel.

The camel is called 'ship of the desert' because he carries people and trade goods around like a ship does. The camel sways as it walks and can induce seasickness (motion sickness).

The first known reference as a "land-ship" was from the Arab poet Dhu al-Rumma. Early Arab nomads recognized its endurance and strength, even in the hot dry desert for up to a couple months without food or drink. It is used for transporting goods and people across the desert, like ships do in water. The reason it is used is because camels can last without food or water for a very long time. When they drink some water is stored in a sack near their stomach, the hump stores fat which is depleted as an energy(food ) source. Then as they travel, their supply slowly diminishes, making them able to last a long time without eating or drinking.

How many camels fit in a school bus?

That depends on a lot of things, like the size of the school bus, whether the camels still have to be alive, etc. I would say zero if they were trying to get into the school bus doors from when I went to school. No camels would fit. but if you had a big enough door for them, and the bus was greyhound sized and all the seats were removed, you could use the area under the floor normally used for storage, and they could stick their heads out the window, you might be able to get around 45 of them in there.

A banana grower wants to transport his 3000 bananas 1000 miles across the desert to the market All he can use is his one camel which can carry 1000 bananas at once but it needs to eat one banana to?

i made the camel walk 1 km drop its load and then come bak pick the nxt thousand and drop it after 1km

so for 1st 1000 bananas : camel requires bananas ( to and fro)

nxt 1000 dates : 2bananas

and last 1000 only 1 banana required

no need to come back

so the camel can travel 1km using 5 bananas .

after travelling 200kms u will lose 1000 bananas (200*5), so for the nxt each kilometre camel requires only 3 bananas . so in that way using 999 bananas u can reach 533 kms( 333 + 200).

now u hav 1001 bananas left with u,leave that 1 banana there and go the remaining distance

u can take 533 to other side
