Adipose serves as the body's primary energy reservoir.
Energy is stored as chemical energy in human body. It is consumed when required.
Food provides energy, and too much food = too much energy so it will be stored. It will be stored and it is what we call fat. Fat can be stored almost anywhere on the human body, their usually stored around our bellys, butts, legs and arms.
Energy is stored for later use by converting it to a compound that can be stored. These are glycogen and humans and starch in plants. In humans, insulin is produced by the pancreas which converts glucose (which can't be stored) into glycogen (which can be stored) which is stored in the liver. to convert the glycogen back to glucose when energy is needed the pancreas produces glucagon, this then converts the glycogen to glucose which is ready to be used by the body for energy.
In the human body, glucose is stored in the cells. The function of the stored glucose is the secondary energy storage. The primary energy is stored in the adipose tissue.
Humans naturally have adipose cells throughout their body - they are vital cells in the skin as well as around the organs. When the body has excess energy (generally in the form of excess glucose), the glucose is converted into long chain fatty acids that are then stored in the cytoplasm of the adipose cells. There does appear to be variations in the distribution of "excess energy storing" adipose cells - some people tend to accumulate adipose in their abdomens, while others tend to accumulate adipose in their hips, buttocks or thighs. Regardless of the location, however, this adipose tissue is a reflection of relatively long-standing excess energy intake relative to energy utilization and is not healthy.
They are stored in fat cells almost everywhere in the body, including adipose tissue, liver, etc.
It can be stored in the muscle or adipose tissue as a triglyceride for later use
Stored EnergyThe energy gets stored as fat (adipose tissue) and stays in your body as a reserve for when you may need it.

This is because our body then resorts to stored energy or adipose tissue ... as back bacon but still much more favorable than regular bacon.
they are stored as fats
Adipose, or fat tissue serves two primary purposes to a body. Adipose is used to store energy, especially needed to when the body is in starvation modes. Second, adipose tissue serves as insulating tissue to help the body retain its critical heat.
lipids are generally stored in adipose tissues in the body. so lipid soluble substances, being dissolved in it, are also stored in adipose tissues.
