Yes, a liver cell is a type of somatic cell. Somatic cells are any cell in the body that is not a sperm or egg cell. Liver cells are an example of somatic cells because they make up the majority of the cells in the liver and are responsible for the organ's function.
What type of epithelial tissue does the liver?
No. These are the cells that make up most of the liver's tissue and preform specialized liver functions. They contain organelles.
Which cells might be used in a laboratory to make a heart cell?
Liver cells
Is the liver composed of the body cells?
Yes, the liver is composed of liver cells called hepatocytes. In addition to hepatocytes, the liver also contains other specialized cells such as Kupffer cells, stellate cells, and endothelial cells.
What type of cells make up a plant and how?
Embryonic cells make up a plant

(i.e, cancer cells growing and taking over the liver, reducing function). Whereas cirrhosis is vast amounts of scarring to the hepatocytes (liver cells), which make up the liver. (i.e liver cells, which are already in existence, being damaged). Cirrhosis does not spread to other parts of the body.
What cells do you have in the liver?
hepatic cells.
