The neuron cell body or soma is responsible for the nutrition and maintenance of of its peripheral parts such as the dendrites and axon. This makes the distances about equal from the center.
The cell body of a neuron is called the soma
The cell body, called the SOMA, is the main part of the neuron. It is the main metabolic center or region of the neuron. The neuron has 3 parts: DENDRITES (inputs), SOMA (cell body), and AXON (output). The axon is the part which FIRES when sufficient inputs reach it at the axon hillock.
A typical neuron consists of a cell body (soma), dendrites, and an axon.

The cell body is the main part of the neuron. It maintains the health of the neuron.

The extensions of the neuron cell body (soma) are called dendrites. Refer to the related link below for an illustration of a neuron.
