所有 is more general, it can replace either 一切 or 全部

* **所有**後果由我來負 = **一切**後果由我來負
* 人體裡的**所有**器官 = 人體裡的**全部**器官
* 圖書館裡的**所有**書籍 = 圖書館裡的**全部**書籍

一切 can be a noun for "Everything"

全部 can be a noun for "the whole thing/ the entire thing/ every parts"

[所有](http://www.cantonese.sheik.co.uk/dictionary/words/2507/) is strictly an adjective when it means 'all/ every'. But it carries other meanings too. (see link)
