Biosynthesis of Fats and Storage of Fats in the Body Fats, also known as lipids, are an essential class of biomolecules that play key roles in energy storage, insulation, and cell membrane structure. The biosynthesis of fats (lipogenesis) involves the formation of fatty acids and their subsequent conversion into triglycerides for storage. Understanding the process of fat biosynthesis and storage is crucial for comprehending how the body regulates energy balance
