White adipose connective tissue
A collection of adipocytes in subcutaneous tissue beneath the skin demonstrates the empty-appearing cells resulting from the loss of lipid during tissue processing. In addition to lipid storage, white adipose connective tissue in this location also serves a thermal insulating function. Hypodermis 1000x
