Definitions:

Agonist

A chemical or drug that binds to receptors in the brain and causes a reaction similar to that of a naturally occurring neurotransmitter.

Excitatory Signal

A type of neurotransmitter-induced signal in the nervous system that increases the likelihood of a neuron firing an action potential.

Action Potential

A sudden increase and subsequent decrease in the voltage across a cell membrane resulting from the movement of charged particles.

Neural Communication

The process by which neurons transmit signals to each other through synapses, using both electrical and chemical means.
