1. Yes, I support the above statement.

2. The axon of nerve cell in hand is shorter than the axon of nerve cell in leg. 

3. The sciatic nerve is the large nerve in humans and animals. It begins in the lower back and runs through the buttock and lower limbs. 

4. Sciatic nerve present in the leg is the largest and widest single nerve in the human body. It measures about 1 mt in length. 

5. 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.
