Get the right size. âThe main thing with kidsâ bikes is having the right size bike for the rider,â says Jon Posner, store manager at Race Pace Bicycles in Ellicott City. Childrenâs bikes are measured by the diameter of the wheel, with sizes ranging from 12 inches to 24 inches. The appropriate size depends on the childâs age and height or leg length. For example, most 2-year-olds start on a 12-inch bike. To test proper fit, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends children sit on the seat with their hands on the handlebars.
In biology, adipose tissue /ËÃ¦dáµ»ËpoÊs/, body fat, or simply fat is a loose connective tissue composed mostly of adipocytes.
The more technical term for body fat is adipose tissue, with individual cells being called adipocytes (adipo = fat; cyte = cell). In humans, the primary type of fat cell is called white adipose tissue, or WAT, so named because of its color (itâs actually sort of a milky yellow).ody fat is one of the places, along with muscle and liver, that your body stores glucose. Studies of rats, or humans, who have no body fat (the lipodystrophy I mentioned above) show chronic high blood glucose, just like diabetics. This is because muscle tissue has a limit to how much glucose it can store as glycogen.
