Answer 1

To construct a G major scale, you follow the pattern of whole and half steps: Whole, Whole, Half, Whole, Whole, Whole, Half. Starting from G, the notes would be:

1. G (root note)
2. A (whole step from G)
3. B (whole step from A)
4. C (half step from B)
5. D (whole step from C)
6. E (whole step from D)
7. F# (whole step from E)
8. G (half step from F# back to G)

The correct response for a G major scale is:

G, A, B, C, D, E, F# , G
