Adipose tissue is actually what we commonly called fat, which is basically energy stored in our bodies in the form of fat.

In the body, fat cells store glycerol as monoglycerides.

 

Glycerol /ˈɡlɪsərɒl/ is a
simple polyol compound. It is a colorless, odorless, viscous liquid that is
sweet-tasting and non-toxic. The glycerol backbone is found in all lipids known
as triglycerides.

 

Monoglycerides are a class
of glycerides which are composed of a molecule of glycerol linked to a fatty
acid via an ester bond.
