Remembering that the notes of a melodic minor scale will differ when going up compared with going down:
The notes of the G sharp melodic minor scale, in both directions, are:
G# A# B C# D# E# Fx G# F# E D# C# B A# G#
When playing on a piano you would finger the scale thus:
2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3 2 1 3 2 1 3 2
Since D flat would have to be related to F flat, which would involve a of double flats in the scale, it is easier to think of as C shart natural minor scale, which is just an enharmonic name for the same note. The notes in this scale are
C# D# E F# G# A B C#
If you really want to think of it as D flat natural minor scale, it would go as follows
D flat, E flat, F flat, G Flat, A flat, B Double flat (flat flat), C flat, D flat
Ascending -D, E, F, G, A, B, Db, D.
Descending- C, Bb, A, G, F, E, D
(Concert pitched instruments of course)
The scale of 'C' - it uses neither sharp or flat notes.

Firstly, lets think about your major cghords. All major chord consist of the first (root) third and fifth notes of the major scale from which they come. so, for c major for eg, C E and G. you chords will all contain 1st 3rd and 5th notes somwhere. so, to make them minor, simply lower the third by a semitone, ie one fret, and hey presto, a minor chord.

There is no such thing as a C sharp minor on a piano. C sharp minor refers to a key signature or tonal center, not a singular note. Remember, the individual notes in music mean nothing until they are made relative to each other by the scale or chords used. Right but also the C# minor scale (C#m) means take the C# scale and flat the third note in the scale progression. The third note here is E# (E Sharp). Start by counting the first note of the scale, it is called the root, in this case C#. So, C#, D#, then E#. The chord is the usually the first (root), 3rd and fifth notes of the scale progression. In a minor key/scale you flat the 3rd note of the scale/chord. So here the E# is flatted to be natural E. The chord C# minor (C#m) consists of the notes C#, E and G#. Have fun.
All three forms of the Minor scale have 7 tones, so any chromatic instrument (such as a bass) will have them all.
The A Flat Natural Minor Scale
C, E-flat, G and B-flat - which are the notes in a C minor seventh.
A flat, B flat, C flat, D flat, E flat, F flat, G natural
G flat, A flat, B flat flat, C flat, D flat, E flat, F natural and G flat.
The C major scale and its relative minor, the A minor scale. C Major.
The notes in a G harmonic minor scale are: G A B flat C D E Flat F# G
Natural minor scales do not have raised 7ths as in harmonic minor scales. They don't have raised 6th in ascending scales as in melodic minor scales. Hence the notes are the same for ascending and descending scales: C D Eb F G Ab Bb C.
The scale of 'C' - it uses neither sharp or flat notes.
The notes of the D harmonic minor scale are D, E, F, G, A, B flat, C#, D.
D flat E flat F natural F sharp A flat B flat C natural D flat (:
A minor scale is the same as its major scale with the third and the seventh notes "flatted" or lowered half a step. For example, the key of C has the notes C D E F G A B C in C minor the E is changed to E-flat and the B is B-flat
The notes in an f major scale are just all notes from one f two the next with a b flat instead of a b natural.
