  1. mario,bcoz we know that camels have wider feet to walk on desert areas.


  2. Mario.

    Pressure is equal to Force divided by the surface of contact. The Force is equal to both of them as it is mass x gravity and they both have the same mass. Then, the difference is the area they have in contact with the floor, he having bigger area will exert less pressure. Rico has bigger feet, then bigger area of contact and smaller Pressure exerted!

  3. Mario of-course because the tension becomes more intense when the width of the base of  the body of mass decrease.....
