Drupal function sequence page edit

Here is sequence information for one of the most commonly questioned areas of Drupal. In what sequence do the node functions work in a page edit?

Most modules work on nodes. Most node modules intercept the node edit or view or both. The sequence of node functions for a node view confuse module developers and the people using newly developed modules. There is some documentation on the sequence of some Drupal node hook functions in some situations but not for all functions.

Here is the edit sequence. We look at a page showing a node and the edit tab. The log is empty. We select the edit tab and Drupal steps through the process to build the node edit page. This record of function calls in the node module.
