Yes, I support this statement.
The axon of nerve cell in hand is shorter than the axon of nerve cell in leg.
Because the sciatic nerve in the leg contains neural axons that extend from the spinal cord all the way to the muscles in the foot, a distance of over a 1 meter.
Usually the length of leg is more in size than hand. Hence the axon of nerve cell in hand is shorter than the axon of nerve cell in leg.
