Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is C
Solution and Explanation
Adipose tissue stores fat. The adipose tissue consists of several spherical or oval adipose cells (adipocytes or fat cells). Each adipose cell contains fat globules, due to which the nucleus and the cytoplasm are displaced to the periphery. There are two types of adipose tissue - white (or yellow) fat and brown fat. White fat contains large adipose cells, each having a single large fat globule and hence, called unilocular. The adipose cells of brown fat are multilocular, each cell with several small fat globules.
