Description
Adipose tissue, commonly known as body fat, is a specialized connective tissue primarily composed of adipocytes (fat cells) that store energy in the form of fat. The main function of adipose tissue is energy storage. It serves as a reservoir for triglycerides, which are stored as lipid droplets within adipocytes. These triglycerides can be mobilized and broken down into fatty acids and glycerol to provide energy when needed by the body.
