Answer:

axon; dendrite

Explanation:

A neuron has three main parts. These are axons, dendrites, and a cell body. Synapse is the site of communication between two neurons. The first neuron of a synapse is called the presynaptic neuron (sending neuron) while the second one is called the postsynaptic neuron (receiving). The axon of the presynaptic neuron and the dendrites of the postsynaptic neuron communicate with each other at the synapse as the axon of the first neuron delivers the nerve impulse away from the cell body.

Dendrites function as the receiving or input portions of a neuron. The plasma membranes of dendrites have numerous receptor sites for binding chemical messengers from the presynaptic neuron.

Answer:

The answer to these questions are the following:

1. sucrose solution (higher concentration of water molecules in the onion cells) >> red onion cells will shrink >> smaller diameter

2. distilled water (higher concentration of water molecules in the surrounding solution) >> red onion cells will become turgid >> higher diameter

Osmosis refers to the movement of a solvent (usually water molecules) across semipermeable biological membranes, which occurs from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. There are three classes of solutions that have different effects on cells due to the process of osmosis:

1. In a hypotonic solution, the cells will become turgid  

2. In an isotonic solution, the cells will become flaccid.  

3. In a hypertonic solution, the cells will shrink (plasmolysis)

When plant cells are placed into a hypertonic solution where there is a greater concentration of solute outside the cells (as in this case sucrose solution), water molecules will move from inside the cells to outside the cells, thereby cells will shrink due to water loss

When plant cells are placed into a hypotonic solution that is diluted in comparison to the content of the cell (as in this case plant cells placed in distilled water) water molecules will move from outside the cells to inside the cells, thereby cells will become turgid.
