CAMEL
The camel has many adaptive traits for their life in the desert. They have long eyelashes and thin, slit nostrils that they can close to protect them from blowing sand. They are adapted to survive a long time without water and food. Camels are perfectly adapted to living in this extremely changeable environment. Their most noticeable way of living in these challenging conditions is the two humps on their back. In these humps camels store fat. When food is scarce across the desert camels use the fat in their humps to provide vital nutrients. Camels are well at survival in the desert. Their adaptations include: large, flat feet to spread their weight on the sand. thick fur on the top of the body for shade, and thin fur elsewhere to allow easy heat loss.

REV IT
The engine consists of a fixed cylinder and a moving piston. The expanding combustion gases push the piston, which in turn rotates the crankshaft. ... After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.
CHEESY
Cheese is made the same way by curdling milk except the milk is curdled on purpose. Most cheese is made in factories. After milk is poured into big vats, a “starter culture” of bacteria is added to convert the lactose into lactic acid. Then an enzyme called rennet is added to curdle the milk.
