Put the steps of cellular communication (placing a call on a cellular network) in the correct order, starting with placing a call.
Place the call. Your phone converts your voice into an electrical signal that is transmitted via radio waves to the nearest cell tower. Once the call is received by the nearest tower, it is relayed to a system/network of cell towers where it is then converted and received by the phone you were calling. When the person on the other phone accepts the call and begins to speak, the person's voice is converted to an electrical signal that is sent back through the network until it is received and converted by the caller's phone.
