  1. The longest axon in the human body extends from the bottom of the spine to the big toe and averages a length of approximately three feet!

    The axons of some neurones are shorter than 1 millimetre.http://www.sciencemuseum.org.uk/exhibiti...


  2. I find it strange that Peter S. got two thumbs down when his answer is completely correct.  I guess that some people vote on answers about which they have no knowledge.
