No, humans do not have fat bodies like frogs. Frogs have a unique body structure that includes storing fat in specific locations to survive hibernation and other periods of inactivity. Humans store fat under the skin and around internal organs for energy storage and insulation.
The yellowish structures that serve as energy reserves in a frog are fat bodies. They are usually located just on the inside of the wall of the abdomen.fat bodiesFat Bodies serve as a frogs energy reserve.
Fat bodies are used for insulation. They will be the smallest in the summer. The temperature is hotter, so they don't need to keep as much heat as in the winter.
In general, male frogs tend to have smaller fat bodies compared to female frogs. Female frogs need more energy to support their reproductive activities such as producing eggs, so they have larger fat bodies to store this energy.
Frogs have a 3-chamber heart (a ventricle and 2 atria), lungs, pancreas, fat bodies, spleen, testes, ovaries, ovaducts. The males even have a vestigial ovaduct.
Fat bodies in leopard frogs serve as storage reserves for energy and nutrients during periods of reduced food availability or during hibernation. They also play a role in insulation and buoyancy, helping the frogs maintain their body temperature and remain buoyant in water.
During the breeding season, male frogs use up their fat reserves to provide energy for calling and mating activities. This decrease in fat bodies allows them to allocate resources to reproduction rather than maintaining body fat. Additionally, females may prefer males with lower fat reserves as it may indicate a higher level of fitness and ability to provide for offspring.

Frogs
The orange or yellow stuff found in frogs is typically their fat bodies or liver. These organs store energy and nutrients needed by the frog for survival. They can vary in color depending on the frog species and its diet.
The fat bodies of amphibians store energy for forming genetic material during hibernation, therefore, they are in the function of reproduction, not simple hibernation survival.In Latin: Corpus adiposusFat bodies store energy in the animal body...
