The tip of a neuron's axon culminates in several endings call terminal buttons. When an action potential is conducted down the axon, this is where it goes.
Motor neuron endings are specialized structures at the terminal ends of motor neurons that form synapses with muscle fibers. These endings release neurotransmitters, such as acetylcholine, to stimulate muscle contractions. They play a crucial role in transmitting signals from the nervous system to muscles, allowing for voluntary movement.
The site where a motor neuron and muscle cell meet is called the neuromuscular junction. This is where the motor neuron releases neurotransmitters that signal the muscle cell to contract.
The response of a motor unit to a single action potential of its motor neuron is called a muscle twitch. This involves the contraction of all the muscle fibers within the motor unit in response to the stimulation from the motor neuron.
The combination of a neuron and the muscle fibers it associates with is called a motor unit. Motor units work together to produce movement by having the neuron stimulate the muscle fibers it innervates to contract.
Interneurons(also called relay neuron, association neuron, connector neuron or local circuit neuron) are multipolar neurons that connects sensory neurons to motor neurons.

The first motor neuron in an autonomic pathway is called a preganglionic neuron. It originates in the central nervous system and synapses with a postganglionic neuron in an autonomic ganglion.
What connects sensory and motor neuron is the impulse called interneuron or connector neuron are connected by means of electrical impulse called synape from sensory to motor neuron.
A neuron is called a inter-neuron because that specific neuron takes impulse from one neuron to a next neuron. For example your sensory neuron sends a impulse that you had felt a hot object. It goes through the spine to a inter-neuron to a motor neuron (this processes is called a reflex). Then the motor neuron tells your muscles in your hand to move

Axon terminal
The point at which a motor neuron synapses with a muscle fiber's motor end plate is called the neuromuscular junction. This is where the nerve impulse is transmitted from the motor neuron to the muscle fiber, leading to muscle contraction.
