Does growth hormone cause fat accumulation within adipocytes?
No.
Which type of connective tissue cell has a large vacuole?
The white adipose cells or adipocytes have a large fat vacuole. White adipocytes are found everywhere in the adipose connective tissues.
What is the medical term meaning cells that contain fat?
I believe you are referring to Adipocytes, which make up adipose tissue.
If adipocytes are incapable of cell division how is weight gain accomplished?
Weight gain is accomplished by an increase in the size of existing adipocytes, not by an increase in their number. When we consume more calories than we burn, excess energy is stored in the form of triglycerides within adipocytes, causing them to enlarge. This leads to an overall increase in body weight as the size of adipose tissue expands.
Scientific name for fat?
Fat has multiple definitions, but the scientific one would be dealing with biology since you used it as a noun. Lipids are another name for fats. A lipid are made of carbohydrates and proteins.
Cells that store fat are called?
Adipocytes [fat cells] (and adipose tissues) store fat.
Can adipocytes get larger?
Adipocytes do get larger. Actually when animals including humans get fat they do not elevate the number of adipocytes in their body they just have larger adipocytes. Adipocytes do not multiply in an adult body they just get larger or they shrink according to how much fat they store.
What promotes fat storage in adipocytes?
Lipoprotein lipase is what promotes the fat storage in adipocytes. This is an enzyme that is water-soluble and is in charge of hydrolyzing the lipoprotein's triglycerides.
Does growth hormone cause fat accumulation within adipocytes?
No.
Is known to promote fat storage in adipocytes?
Lipoprotein lipase
What is known to promote fat storage in adipocytes?
Lipoprotein lipase
If mature adipocytes do not divide how can adults gain weight?
Adipocytes contain a fat-filled vacuole that can fill or empty, causing the cell to gain or lose volume.
How is weight gain accomplished with adipocytes?
The amount of stored fat into the cell increases.
Where are fats stood in the body?
Fat cells known as adipocytes, often in the liver.
Which type of connective tissue cell has a large vacuole?
The white adipose cells or adipocytes have a large fat vacuole. White adipocytes are found everywhere in the adipose connective tissues.
What kind of cells store fats?
an 'Adipocyte' (fat cell), sometimes simply called adipose, are cells that specialise in fat storage. adipose tissue is a mainly made up of adipocytes. that is why adipose tissue is often referred to as fatty tissue, because the adipose tissue is made up of adipocytes which have fat stored in them. when you hear the word adipose its generally referring to fat, and remember lipid is another word for fat. eg : if something is lipid soluble, it means that it is fat soluble (able to disolve in fats/lipids). so i believe the answer to your question is adipocytes.
What is the scientific name of fat?
The scientific name for fat is adipose tissue. It is a type of connective tissue that stores energy in the form of fat cells called adipocytes.
