Dear student,

Option B

∙ Adipose tissue are fat-storing tissues found below the skin

and between internal organs.

∙ Their cells are filled with fat globules and act as an insulator.

Explanation for incorrect options:

Option A: Cuboidal epithelium cells are cube-shaped cells that provide mechanical support. They form the lining of kidney tubules and ducts of salivary glands.

Option C: Bone is connective tissue. It forms the framework that supports the body. It also anchors the muscles and supports the main organs of the body.

Option D: Cartilage is a connective tissue that has widely spaced cells. They have a solid matrix composed of proteins and sugars. They smoothen the bone surfaces at joints.

Conclusion: Thus, fats are stored in the human body as adipose tissue.
