This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.
At a particular moment within a piece, we may hear one unaccompanied melody, several simultaneous melodies, or a melody with supporting chords. To describe these various possibilities, we use the term musical texture, which refers to how many different layers of sound are heard at once, to what kind of layers they are (melody or harmony), ad to how they are related to each other.
To what does musical texture refer?
A. How many different layers of sound are heard at the same time
B. What kind of layers of sound are heard (melody or harmony)
C. How layers of sound are related to each other
D. All answers are correct.
