The only option in that list that can be diploid is the somatic cell.
Somatic cells.
Almost every cell in the body id diploid, the only cells that are haploid are the germ cells, ie sperm and ovum.
A gamete is haploid
If the somatic (normal) cell has 38 chromosomes, then the diploid number will be 38. If the gametes (sperm and ovum/egg) have 38 chromosomes, then the diploid number will be 76.
The female gamete is called an ovum or an egg. This is the cell that is fertilized by the male gamete known as the sperm.
A muscel cell is not an example of a gamete cell. A gamete cell is a reproductive cell that unite during sexual reproduction to form a new cell called the zygote. In males the sperm is the gamete cell and in females the ovum is the gamete cell.

From a text book.. diploid cell- In an organism that reproduses sexually, a cell containing two homologous sets of chromosomes, one set of inherited from each parent; a 2n cell haploid cell- In the life cycle of an organism that reproduces sexually, a cell containing a single set of chromosomes; an n cell ...diploid?

A somatic cell is any cell in the body or a plant and can therefore do anything, depending on where it is located. e.g. a muscle cell in an arm muscle contracts, an eye cell detects light etc. The only cells which are not somatic are the sex cells such as sperm, eggs (animals), pollen and ovum (plants).
Yes, a hepatocyte is a somatic cell. All the cells in the body, except for sex cells (sperm and ovum/egg), are somatic cells.
Yes, the ovum is the female gamete.
A normal human body (somatic) cell normally has 46 chromosomes (2 sets of 23). A normal human gamete (sperm or ovum) has 23 chromosomes.
diploid foolall are diploid except sperms and eggs
The egg cell "ovum" only has half the genetic material, so it is haploid.
