Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that adipose tissue is a type of connective tissue that stores energy in the form of fat.
Recognize that the primary storage form of fat in the body is triglycerides, which are composed of glycerol and three fatty acids.
Differentiate triglycerides from other lipid types such as phospholipids and steroids, which have different structures and functions.
Recall that phospholipids are major components of cell membranes, not primarily used for energy storage.
Remember that steroids, such as cholesterol, serve as precursors for hormones and are not used for energy storage like triglycerides.
