There are cells in the body called adipose cells.basically these are fat cells.we are born with a set amount.due to genetics and hormones we gain fat in each cell but some more than others.as we age fat is stored in different places due to hormones.we can diet and exercise to lose fat in stored cells but you cant choose whereand you dont lose the cells themselves.eating animal fats and excess carbohydrates will make you gain fat,especially if you are sedentary.Liposuction actually removes some adipose cells.if you arent careful though the remaining cells in the area "fdone" can still store fat.

What is whale fat in?

Whales and other sea mammals have a thick layer of fat in their bodies called blubber which helps the whales and is the cause that whalers hunt whales. The blubber is used to keep the whale warm, and when the whale is in the breeding grounds, he can't eat, so he has to live off the blubber he has saved up. They are important to humans, too. They were used for oil lamps, oil machines, make expensive perfume, etc...
