1. You have two groups, and it seems that the dependent variable "number of connections between nerve cells, so that means you have two is compared. In this case I would take two sample t-test.

2. You have three groups and the dependent variable is the level "of depression (probably) an IQ of depression. Since there are three groups that used analysis of variance between subjects.

There ya go.
