An excitatory synapse is a synapse in which an action potential in a presynaptic neuron increases the probability of an action potential occurring in a postsynaptic cell. Neurons form networks through which nerve impulses travel, each neuron often making numerous connections with other cells.
When neurotransmitter molecules bind to receptors located on a neuron's dendrites, voltage-gated ion channels open. At excitatory synapses, positive ions flood the interior of the neuron and depolarize the membrane, decreasing the difference in voltage between the inside and outside of the neuron.
