Alphabetical Order Challenge

Can you use the order of the alphabet to list each group of words alphabetically? 


Remember the rules: look at the first letters in each word. List them as they appear alphabetically.     magpie     crow     rook  →   crow, magpie, rook


If two or more words begin with the same letter, look at their second letter and order them alphabetically.      avocado     apple    →     apple, avocado


If the first two letters are the same, then look at the third letter... this process repeats until you find a letter that is different to order alphabetically! 

                            tent, tension, tender    →     tender, tension, tent
