excitatory extracellular ligand-gated monoatomic ion channel activity
http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/GO_0005231
Enables the transmembrane transfer of an ion by a channel that opens when a specific extracellular ligand has been bound by the channel complex or one of its constituent parts, where channel opening contributes to an increase in membrane potential.
