Question
In which one of the following types of connective tissues in animals does fat get stored?
Options
A. Adipocyte
B. Chondrocyte
C. Osteocyte
D. Reticulocyte

Correct Answer

Adipocyte

Explanation

Adipocytes are the major source of leptin production, and plasma leptin concentrations directly correlate with the amount of total body fat.

Adipocytes are highly specialized cells that play a crucial role in the energy balance of most vertebrates.

Adipocytes convert excess energy to tri-acylglycerol and deposit it during feeding in preparation for periods of food deprivation.

Adipocytes may become enlarged by increased fat storage
