an alcoholics liver tissue usually differs greatly from those of moderate or nondrinkers because the amount an alcoholic drinks is enough to cause damage to the liver, and the liver tissue gets replaced by fibrous scar tissue as well as lumps that are formed as a result of the attempted regeneration of the liver tissue. this leads to a progressive loss of function in the liver and diseases such as cirrhosis of the liver. the scar tissue prevents blood from flowing through the liver, preventing it from functioning properly.
