These are cells that stores lipids as droplet that fill most of the cytoplasm.
A
Adipose
B
Adipocytes
C
Adpocytes
D
Adicytes
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Adipocytes are specialized cells in storing energy as neutral fatty acids when the energy balance is positive. Unilocular means that the majority of the cell cytoplasm is occupied by a very large lipid droplet . Most adipocytes of the body are white adipocytes.

Detailed explanation-2: -There are two types of adipose cells: white adipose cells contain large fat droplets, only a small amount of cytoplasm, and flattened, noncentrally located nuclei; and brown adipose cells contain fat droplets of differing size, a large amount of cytoplasm, numerous mitochondria, and round, centrally located nuclei.

Detailed explanation-3: -Lipid droplets are cytosolic fat storage organelles present in most eukaryotic cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Lipids such as cholesterol, cholesteryl esters and triglycerides are stored in your body primarily in specialized fat cells called adipocytes, which comprise a specialized fatty tissue called adipose tissue. Stored lipids can be derived from the lipids in your diet or from lipids that your body synthesizes.

Detailed explanation-5: -Lipid droplets are found in all eukaryotic organisms and store a large portion of lipids in mammalian adipocytes.
