How adipose cells function as shock absorbing cushion?

Dear student, 

It is the hypodermis that acts as a shock absorber in the body. This hypodermis is composed of fat cells, blood vessels and various connective tissues and is also called white adipose tissue. It allows the skin and the muscles move easily throughout the body, and protects from mechanical injury to vital organs of the body. Thus, it acts as a shock absorber.
