Camels have ______ eyelids to protect themselves from blowing sand

AnswerClick to flip back
A
three
💡 Explanation:

Camels have three eyelids - two regular eyelids plus a third transparent eyelid (nictitating membrane) that sweeps horizontally across the eye to protect it from sand while still allowing vision. This adaptation is crucial for desert environments. Two, one, or four eyelids are incorrect for camels.
