Source sentences:
text: When a neurotransmitter binds to a receptor on the postsynaptic side of the synapse, it changes the postsynaptic cell's excitability: it makes the postsynaptic cell either more or less likely to fire an action potential.
text: Neurotransmitter binds to receptor on receiving neuron’s end.
text: Neurotransmitter binds to receptor on receiving neuron’s end.
text: The neurotransmitter then binds to receptors embedded in the postsynaptic membrane, causing them to enter an activated state.
text: Released neurotransmitters diffuse across the cleft, and bind to receptors on the other cell's membrane, causing ion channels on that cell to open.
text: These neurotransmitters, then bind to receptors on the new neuron.
text: As previously mentioned, once the neurotransmitter binds to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, the message becomes electrical once again.
