Adipose tissue, more commonly known as fat, stores caloric energy which can be used to supplement dietary calories if needed, in lean times. Cartilage is a type of connective tissue which helps to construct joints and some other structures in the body.

Adipose tissue is a type of connective tissue that stores fat, providing insulation and energy reserves. Cartilage, on the other hand, is a type of supportive connective tissue that is more rigid than adipose tissue. Cartilage provides structure and support to areas like joints and the nose.
