The smallest cell in the human body is the male sperm. The cell head is about 3 µm by 5 µm and the tail (flagellum) is about 41 µm long (µm = micrometers). Oddly enough, the largest cell in the human body is the female egg (ovum), which is about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.

What is the shortest cell in human body?
There are a number of contenders for the position of smallest cell in the human body. The head of the sperm is on average 5 to 6 micro meters. The flagellum is up to 50 micrometers long. Also some says Granule Cell of the Cerebellum is the smallest cell of the human body it is approximately 4um to 4.5um in size. The size of the RBC also found as around 5 micrometers. In terms of volume most of the scientists suggest that sperm is the smallest cell.
What is the smallest unit of life in the human body?
The smallest living unit is the cell, which is made up of molecules, which in turn is made up of atoms, but neither molecules nor atoms are alive.
What organ in the human body has the smallest bones?
The smallest bone in the human body is the stapes (or stirrup) in the ear.
What is the smallest cell in the female body?
While axons of the neuron are often mere micrometres thick, they can be up to a meter long (and longer in adults). This makes the neuron the longest cell in the body.
