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
