Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Adipose tissue, otherwise known as body fat, is a connective tissue that extends throughout your body. It’s found under your skin (subcutaneous fat), between your internal organs (visceral fat) and even in the inner cavities of bones (bone marrow adipose tissue).

Detailed explanation-2: -White adipose tissue is the predominant type of fat in the human body. It can be found beneath the skin (subcutaneous fat), around internal organs (visceral fat), and in the central cavity of bones (bone marrow fat), as well as cushioning various parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Abstract. The adipose tissue plays a fundamental role in maintaining the energy balance in mammals. During periods of high energy intake, the adipocytes store energy in the form of fat (triglycerides), which can be mobilized as free fatty acids during energy deprivation.

Detailed explanation-4: -The fat stored in adipose tissue comes from dietary fats or is produced in the body. Mammals have two different types of adipose: white adipose tissue and brown adipose tissue.
