If a neurotransmitter attaches to a ligand-gated channel and creates a potential that causes the inside of the excitable cell membrane to become less negative, and this potential travels only a short distance before dying out, it is considered to be a(n)

Depolarized graded potential.

Explanation:

A depolarizing graded potential is a local change in the membrane potential that makes a small increase in the potential. The membrane potential is less negative because the graded potential caused the entrance of Ca²⁺ or Na⁺ ions to the inside of the cell decreasing the negative voltage in the inside of the cell.
