The fat bodies store fat. Storing fat gives the frog energy, helps him stay warm, and ables him to float.

They stay warm in the winter.
The function of fats to frogs is to:
1. to support the special organs in the body e.g heart & kidney
2. it act as shock absorber
3. it provide insulation to the frog
4. it produces hormones
It reserves food supply during hibernation
some times when your in your back yard you might flip up a rock and find a toad, toads actually hibernate under objects such as a rock for example and there body fat play a role in keeping them warm and insuring that they wont starve to death.

The fat bodies in frogs serve as energy reserves, providing essential nutrients and calories during periods of hibernation or when food is scarce. They help sustain the frog's metabolism during dormancy, allowing it to survive without active feeding. As hibernation ends and the frog resumes activity, these fat reserves are diminished, leading to their small size or absence.
To make a difference between ugly and hot people.
The most common frog dissection method is to slice a capital "I" shape on the ventral side of the frog. Peel open and pin back the skin, then repeat this for the muscle layer. Remove fat bodies and observe.
The yellowish structures that serve as energy reserves in a frog are fat bodies. They are usually located just on the inside of the wall of the abdomen.fat bodiesFat Bodies serve as a frogs energy reserve.
The orange projections found around the ovaries and testes of frogs are called fat bodies. These structures serve as energy reserves for the frog, storing fats and nutrients that can be utilized during periods of fasting or when energy demands increase, such as during reproduction. Fat bodies play a crucial role in supporting the frog's metabolic needs throughout its life cycle.
