In vertebrates, the term motor neuron (or motoneuron) classically applies to neurons located in the central nervous system (or CNS) that project their axons outside the CNS and directly or indirectly control muscles. The motor neuron is often associated with efferent neuron, primary neuron, or alpha motor neurons.Source:Wikipedia (search Motor neuron, to read more).
The prefix for neuron is "neur-" and the suffix is "-on." For myo, the prefix is "myo-" and there is no specific suffix commonly associated with this term.
The space between the ending of one neuron and the communication with the next neuron is called the synapse, or sometimes it is called the synaptic gap or synaptic cleft. But synapse is the common term.
