Is there any difference in the length of the nerve cells in a rat and a giraffe?

The nerve cell of the giraffe can go up about 10 meters long because of their long neck by stretching.

What type of cell is the longest in the human body?
The longest cells are neurons (nerve cells) with a length of 90cm-100cm linking the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) to other parts of the body.
How can you use nerve cells in a sentence?
Nerve cells are a part of the nervous system. There are nerve cells all around the body. Without nerve cells your body would not function the way it does.
What is a group of nerve cells called?
A group of nerve cells all together is called a ganglion. These nerve cells are linked by synapses and attach to a nerve fiber.
Which is the largest eukaryotes prokaryotes or plant cells?
Plant cells are eukaryotes. Prokaryotes are definitely smallest, usually less than 5 micrometers in length. The green algae Caulerpa is of the world's largest single-celled organisms. It grows in tropical waters, and some grow to be over a meter long. Most cells are limited to less than 100 micrometers. The nerve cells in a giraffe leg can be several meters long. There is endless debate about what is the largest single cell. If it has to be a separate organism, then perhaps the algae wins. If it can be part of another organism, then perhaps the nerve cells win.
What is the difference between a human nerve cell and plant guard cell?
Human nerve cells allows information from the brain to be carried to other parts of the body BUT plant guard cells allows the amount of oxygen to enter the stomata.
Will there be a difference in the length of the nerve cells in a rat and a giraffe?
i dont think itll differ as nerve cells donot differ according to the size of the organism
Is the length of nerve cell different from rat and giraffe cells?
according the size of the organisms it will a different length.
What is the difference between nerve cells and nerve?
a nerve tends to refer to a group of nerve cells.
Why are nerve cells long?
Nerve cells have to be long enough to extend from where they are located in the body, the hands and feet for example, to the spinal chord or brain. Some nerve cells in a giraffe may be ten feet long. Others may be very short.
What is the longest cell?
The longest of cells are nerve cells, some are over a meter long in humans. The longest of nerve cells in any species are be found in the colossal squid, with some nerve cells estimated to be over 10 meters in length.
What is the difference between root hair celll and nerve cell?

What is the difference between muscule cell and nerve cells?
muscle cells regenerate, nerve cells don't. That is why your muscle is only sore for a couple of days but youre paralized forever.
How big do cells get?
The largest cells in length are the nerve cells that run down an animal's leg and in volume an Ostrich egg is a cell.
What animal has longest nerve cell?
is it giraffe?
What is the job of nerve cells?
Branching cells, know as nerve cells shape make them great for communication signals between the brain and the rest of the body. Branching cells great length helps these signals reach the brain quickly.
What is a connector nerve?
Connector nerve cells connect the sensory nerve cells with motor nerve cells and allow for decision making.
The association nerve cells relay information from sensory nerve cells to motor nerve cells?
True. A+
