Fat is stored throughout the body in fat cells known as adipocytes. The number of adipocytes an individual has is determined by late adolescence and rarely changes during adulthood. However, fat cells can increase and decrease in size depending on the amount of fat that the body is storing.
However, the body can store only small quantities of glucose. A total of about 20 grams of glucose are dissolved in the extracellular fluid of an adult. To meet the energy needs between meals and while sleeping the body stores glucose as glycogen or fatty acids. Adipose, muscle and liver cells are the primary sites of energy storage. Adipose can use glucose to synthesize fatty acids, and triglycerides.
