Tapeworms can grow extremely long due to their unique reproductive strategy and body structure. They consist of a series of segments called proglottids, which continuously produce new segments at the neck region. Each segment can contain both male and female reproductive organs, allowing them to multiply rapidly. As they attach to the intestinal wall of their host, they can absorb nutrients directly from the host's digestive system, enabling them to grow and extend over time.
