# The human small intestine has three parts; the duodenum, the jejuneum, and the ileum. Since the duodenum is about a foot long, the jejunem is about 6 feet long, and the ileum is about 9 feet long, that makes the small intestine about 16 feet long. Since the duodenum is about a foot long, the jejunem is about 6 feet long, and the ileum is about 9 feet long, that make the small intestine about 16 feet long. That would mean that there are about 88 small intestines in every miles. Then id we multiply that by the earth's circumference of about 24900 miles, that means that there would need to be about 2.2 million human small intestines lined up end to end to reach all the way around the world.

How long is human intestions?

The average length of human intestines varies, but they collectively measure about 25 to 30 feet (7.5 to 9 meters) in length. The small intestine is approximately 20 feet (6 meters) long, while the large intestine is about 5 feet (1.5 meters) long. This length can vary based on individual factors such as age, sex, and overall health.

How many times can your intesntines go around the world?

The average length of the human intestines is about 20 to 25 feet (6 to 7.5 meters) for the small intestine and around 5 feet (1.5 meters) for the large intestine, totaling roughly 25 to 30 feet. The circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,901 miles (40,075 kilometers). If you were to stretch the intestines out, they could go around the Earth about 0.000002 times, which highlights just how long the Earth's circumference is compared to human anatomy.

YES. A small circle is simply a circle around the earth that does not fly over the direct opposite place on earth that a plane took off from. A great circle goes full circumference of earth, where a small circle does not. Being a circle they both fly in a constant direction.


How many times can your small intestine go around the earth if you stretched it out?

If the small intestine were stretched out, it would measure about 20 to 25 feet long (approximately 6 to 7.5 meters). The Earth's circumference is about 24,901 miles (approximately 40,075 kilometers). Therefore, if you stretched out the small intestine, it could wrap around the Earth roughly 0.0004 times, which means it would not complete even a single full loop around the planet.
