Thank you for the help! If you're curious, this problem set it for practice purposes. However, I guess Im confused as to why Imitation couldn't be C since wouldn't it just be an imitation of the original melodic idea but just in half?

So I am having trouble distinguishing between these melodic ideas. Can anyone help me with this? Question: Match the following terms with the correct melodic idea Original Melodic Idea: 5 – 3 – 2 – 1 – 2 - 3 1. Imitation 2. Inversion 3. Retrograde 4. Augmentation 5. Diminution A. 10 – 6 – 4 – 2 – 4 – 6 B. 7 – 5 – 4 – 3 – 4 – 5 C. 2.5 – 1.5 – 1 – 0.5 - 1 – 1.5 D. 5 – 7 – 8 – 9 – 8 – 7 E. 3 – 2 – 1 – 2 – 3 – 5 I am pretty sure Retrograde is E but I am having trouble with the others. Any help is greatly appreciated!
