Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fat cells, or adipocytes, are found in adipose tissue, which is specialized connective tissue designed to store energy in the form of fat. Reticular tissue is found in organs such as the spleen and lymph nodes, and is involved in immune function. Irregular dense fibrous tissue is found in places such as the dermis of the skin, and provides strength and support. None of these tissues are specialized for fat storage like adipose tissue.
