Hair and fingernails to a certain extent.

The above answer is an urban myth. On death all parts of the body including hair and fingernails cease growing.
None.

That the hair and nails continue to grow is a myth. People think that because the tissue around them dries out and shrivels and makes it look like they are longer.
