It is also interesting that many, perhaps most, patients with this condition also have skin allergies, eczema and/or asthma. The patient with moderate to severe icthyosis often has problems sweating due to the buildup of scales on the skin. The scales essentially seal the sweat glands.
For now, it is good to know the names. These names apply to all major and minor scales. 1  1st-Tonic. 2  2nd-Supertonic. 3  3rd-Mediant. 4  4th-Subdominant. 5  5th-Dominant. 6  6th-Submediant. 7  7th-Leading Tone.
(2.2) Intervals of the Major Scale. The Major scale is by far the most common scale in western music. When played in sequence, the notes of the Major scale make the famous do-re-mi-fa-so-la-ti-do sound. This characteristic sound of the Major scale is created by the pattern of intervals between its notes. There are seven notes in the Major scale and seven intervals between them. This pattern is: When this pattern is used to extract notes from the Chromatic scale, we arrive at the Major scale. Adding the semitone interval sizes together (2+2+1+2+2+2+1) gives a total of 12, the number of semitones in a octave. This is also true for every other (non-Major) scale type.
