Definitions:

EPSPs

Excitatory Postsynaptic Potentials, which are temporary increases in postsynaptic membrane potential due to the flow of positively charged ions into the postsynaptic cell, making it more likely to fire an action potential.

Excitatory Postsynaptic Potentials

Temporary increases in membrane potential in a postsynaptic neuron, making the neuron more likely to fire an action potential.

Synaptic Knob

The part of a neuron that communicates with another neuron or muscle cell across a synapse.

Dendrites
