Adipose tissue is a loose connective tissue covering most of the organs. These are fat-storing cells. 

Adipose tissue is mainly or actually a fat. Fat acts as a insulator because it has much less water quantity, and there are very fewer blood vessels compare to other body tissues. Due to lack of water and blood vessels, these tissue do not conduct heat away from organ and thus acts as insulator by holding body heat and keeping the organs warm for their required function.

It is part of animal tissue----->connective tissue----->it's Stores fat and is present just below the layer of skin.

It acts as an insulator because of lack of water and blood vessels.
these tissue are not able to conduct heat away from organs and keep them warm according to the need.

And that is why in polar animals like polar bears ---> these tissue are even thicker than usual so as to keep them warm in the extreme cold climate. In polar bears it also acts as an energy storage place for slow hunting period.
