What does a liver cells shape say about what it does.

Sagot :

The cells are polygonal in shape and their sides can be in contact either with sinusoids (sinusoidal face) or neighboring hepatocytes (lateral faces). A portion of the lateral faces of hepatocytes is modified to form bile canaliculi.

The liver filters all of the blood in the body and breaks down poisonous substances, such as alcohol and drugs. The liver also produces bile, a fluid that helps digest fats and carry away waste. The liver consists of four lobes, which are each made up of eight sections and thousands of lobules (or small lobes).
