Anatomy and Physiology muscle contraction steps?

Can someone help me put the steps of muscle contraction in order: a. The action potential travels down a T-tubule b. ACh is released from the presynaptic terminal c. ATP binds to the myosin heads, making them release the active sites on the actin d. Ca2+ binds to troponin, exposing the active sites on the actin, allowing the myosin heads to grab onto the actin e. ACh travels across the synaptic cleft f. The return stroke g. Calcium ions are released from the sarcoplasmic reticulum h. The power stroke i. An action potential travels down the axon of a motor neuron j. ACh interacts with the muscle fiber membrane to create a muscle action potential

ACh is released at the synapse (b then e) and interacts with membrane receptor and starts an action potential in the muscle membrane (j) Action potential travels down T-tubule (a) where it stimulates the sarcoplasmic reticulum to release Ca2+ (g) Ca2+ binds to troponin (d) and myosin binds for the power stroke (h) ATP binds to the myosin and they release the actin (c) and the return stroke occurs (f)
