Biochemistry Western Governors University A: Fats are made up fatty acids and a glycerol. They are stored in cells known as adipocytes throughout the body. When the body needs energy the stored fats are broken down through the process of metabolism and beta oxidation (Livestrong.com‚ n.d.). For example‚ triacylglyceride or triglyceride are broken down into their separate parts‚ fatty acid chains and a glycerol. The body will always metabolize the glycerol first because it is easier
