Human Adipose (Fat) cells:  a. store glycogen as a long-term energy reserve b.  store triglycerides as a long-term energy reserve c.   release triglycerides when the human body is in prolonged “energy deficit” (more        calories used than calories eaten)  d.   increase or decrease the size of their lipid droplet depending on how many calories you  eat, but never go away  e.   store large amounts of NADH to support metabolism during periods when our muscles        cannot get enough oxygen to carry out oxidative phosphorylation
