THREE FAT CELLS (ADIPOSE TISSUE), Parotid Salivary Gland, 100X - stock photo

THREE FAT CELLS (ADIPOSE TISSUE), Parotid Salivary Gland, 100X. Adipose Tissue is classified as Loose Connective Tissue made up of Fat Cells (ADIPOCYTES). The main function of adipose tissue is to store energy in the form of lipids (e.g. triglycerides). In addition, it insulates and cushions the body. Adipose tissue can also function as an endocrine tissue--it produces hormones. Because of large amounts of fat that is stored, the cytoplasm and nucleus are pushed out to the very periphery of the cell--the cytoplasm is very thin and the nucleus is flattened.
