Triglycerides, stored in adipose tissue, are a major form of energy storage both in animals and plants. They are a major source of energy in aerobic respiration. The complete oxidation of fatty acids releases about 38&nbsp;kJ/g (9&nbsp;[[Calorie#Kilogram and gram calories|kcal/g]]), compared with only 17&nbsp;kJ/g (4&nbsp;kcal/g) for the oxidative breakdown of [[carbohydrate]]s and [[protein]]s. The [[adipocyte]], or fat cell, is designed for continuous synthesis and breakdown of triglycerides in animals, with breakdown controlled mainly by the activation of hormone-sensitive enzyme [[lipase]]. Migratory birds that must fly long distances without eating use triglycerides to fuel their flights.</div>FuzzyBot
