• Neurotransmitters can be Neurotransmitters can be – Stimulatory: initiate action potentialStimulatory: initiate action potential
• AcetylcholineAcetylcholine
– Inhibitory: prevent action potentialInhibitory: prevent action potential• DopamineDopamine
• After acting on the post-synaptic After acting on the post-synaptic neuron, neurotransmitters are neuron, neurotransmitters are removed from the synaptic cleft removed from the synaptic cleft
