Animals usually store excess energy in fat cells as fats.
In body fat.

Glucose is a key factor in short-term energy storage for both Plants and Animals.
Animals have molecules that can store energy for short term and long term periods of time. Animals use carbohydrates as short term storage and Lipids as long term storage.
Both plants and animals store chemical energy in a nucleotide called ATP (Adenosine-TriPhosphate). This nucleotide acts as a coenzyme for different processes in cells when it releases energy by turning into ADP (adenosine Diphosphate).

Fat is the long term energy storage medium for most animals. Glycogen is the short term storage medium. Glycerol is the backbone of triglycerides.
Carbohydrates function in short-term energy storage (such as sugar) and as intermediate-term energy storage (starch for plants and glycogen for animals). Fats and oils function in long-term energy storage. Fats yield 9.3 Kcal/gm, while carbohydrates yield 3.79 Kcal/gm. Fats thus store six times as much energy as glycogen.
Indeed, both inductors and capacitors store energy only short-term - very short-term. A battery is designed to store energy for much longer - for hours, days, or even months at a time.
they store energy for many things: some examples are eating, having energy inside the body for your brain to send messages to other parts in the body, things like that
Yes, they do. The more they exercise, the more glycogen they produce which is stored as short-term energy.
