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.

What type of cell is the longest cell in the body?
A tactile (touch) sensory neuron of the toes would stretch from the toe all the way to the medulla (lowest part of the brainstem). The dendrites would extend from the toe to the lower end of the spinal cord, where its cell body would be in the dorsal root ganglion, and from there the axon continues all the way to the medulla in the brainstem. So, in a person who's 6 feet tall the cell could be over 5 feet long.
In what type of human cell is the chromosome number 23?
No, there are 46 chromosomes in the human body cell. However, there are 23 chromosomes in a human gamete cell.
How is a cell similar to a human being?
In a cell there is a part that has a specific job (nucleus=control center) just like a human (brain=controlls actions of body) __________________________________________________________________ Actually you cant say they are similar but humans are made of cells, trillions of them, and the type of cell is eukaryotic so we are eukaryotes and eukaryote is a type and there is only one other type known and that is the prokaryote which was the first cell.
What cell type is diploid?
Almost every cell in the body id diploid, the only cells that are haploid are the germ cells, ie sperm and ovum.
What type of typical body cell has 46 chromosomes?
The typical body cell (or somatic cell) of a human has 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs of autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes. In females, there are two X chromosomes and in males there is one X and one Y.

How many organs in your body can get cancer?
Any organ, or any type of tissue or cell in the body can produce a type of cancer. This potential exists in every living cell which makes up the human body.
What is a human cell?

What are the two type of sex cells in the human body?
Sperm cell for men, and ovum for women.
In what type of human cell is the chromosome number 23?
No, there are 46 chromosomes in the human body cell. However, there are 23 chromosomes in a human gamete cell.
What is most likely the smallest cell type?
In the Human Body Sperm cells would be the smallest and Smallest cell is a type of bacteria known as mycoplasma its diameter is 0.0001 mm.
What are the 4 type of cells in the human body?
There are more than 4 types of cells in the human body. There are about 200 different types of cells. Each cell has a different function.
Are there any cells in a human body do mitosis on a regular basis?
Yes, there are too many to list as almost every cell type in the body does.
