The ________ is the unit of measure or small difference between the various consecutive pitches within a grama or a scale.
Answer: A
The answer is Shruti. In Indian music theory a shruti is the smallest audible interval of pitch, the small difference between consecutive pitches within a grama or scale; the traditional count is 22 shrutis in an octave. A svara is a musical note, and the seven svaras are chosen from among the shrutis, so it is a larger unit. Naada means sound or tone in a general sense, and a raga is a melodic framework made from svaras. Only shruti means the unit of small pitch difference described in the question.
