'alternated' is the definition.
The answer and definition are different parts of speech. However, adjectives and past participle verbs sometimes mean the same thing.

'schedule list' is the wordplay.
'schedule' becomes 'rota' (a rota is a schedule).
'list' becomes 'table' (list can mean a table or chart).
'rota'+'table'='ROTATABLE'

'that can be' acts as a link.
