If you want to move your pinky finger - specifically, to abduct the digiti minimi, first the brain decides to move it. It sends a signal (an action potential) to the alpha motor neuron (that goes down the spinal cord to the ulnar nerve, all the way to the muscle in the finger). The action potential in the neuron causes an action potential in the muscle, which, by excitation-contraction coupling, causes the contraction of the muscle, and thus the movement of the finger.
