Answer:

Store Energy – When we take in more energy than we need, the body stores it as adipose tissue (fatty tissue, which we call fat).  

Regulate and Signal – Lipids regulate the temperature of your body, keeping it steady, not too hot, and not too cold.  

Insulate and Protect – Our bodies are padded with fat, protecting us from everyday friction.

Aid Digestion and Increase Bioavailability – When food breaks down in the gut, fat is released and combines with fat-soluble nutrients

If the outside temperature decreases by 20 degrees Celsius, what will happen to a reptile’s body temperature?
oksian1 [2.3K]

The reptile's body temperature rises when the external temperature rises. When the temperature drops, so does his body temperature. If a reptile feels cold because the external temperatures have made his blood cold, he'll lie in the sun to warm up. However, if the external temperature is too high, he scurries under a rock, dives in a pool or finds some kind of shade where he can cool down. Reptiles and other animals with ectothermic systems are vulnerable to extreme changes in temperature because they can't control their temperatures internally. They can control their body temperatures only by moving to an environment with a suitable ambient temperature.
