उत्तर
adipose tissue
Explanation -
Adipose (connective tissue) is primarily a fat-storing tissue in which the matrix is packed with large, spherical, or oval fat cells (or adipocytes). Each fat cell contains a large fat globule. The adipose tissue is found beneath the skin, in the covering of the heart, around the blood vessels and kidneys, and in the yellow bone marrow. This tissue stores fat and insulates the body against heat loss.
