The seventh note in any scale is known as the leading note.
In a minor scale - it will be a semi-tone lower than the tonic ( the last note)
In the major scale of C, the seventh note is a B.
In the song from The Sound of Music the seventh part is: Tea a drink with jam and bread...
In a melodic minor scale, the sixth and seventh degrees are sharpened. In real cases - we have to use the word 'raised' rather than 'sharpened' since sometimes we need to raise the sixth degree of a major scale which is already flat. In Ab minor for example - we use naturals to raise the sixth and seventh degrees ascending since those notes (F and G), are already flatted due to the key signature.
No, not every note is sharpened, or raised a half step. It's just that note. For example, in a measure, if the note A is sharpened, every A in that measure will be sharpened unless naturalized.

Am penta tonic....................starting on the C note.
no
F sharp
To determine what the seventh note (leading note) is in a minor scale, you need to determine which minor scale you are playing. The seventh note of a natural minor scale, you take the note which is a whole tone (2 notes) below your tonic (the note which is the name of your scale). Example: In A natural minor scale the leading note is G. The seventh note of a harmonic minor scale is a semitone (1 note) below your tonic note. Ex: In E harmonic minor scale, the leading note is D sharp. The seventh note of a melodic minor scale (ascending) will be a semitone below your tonic note, like your harmonic minor scale. Descending the melodic minor scale reverts to its natural state, therefore your seventh note will be a whole tone below your tonic.

The harmonic minor scale has a raised seventh note compared to the natural minor scale, while the melodic minor scale has both a raised sixth and seventh note when ascending, but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending.
Yes, seventh chords can be built on any note of the minor scale. Each note of the scale serves as a root, allowing for the construction of different seventh chords, typically using the notes within the scale. For example, in the natural minor scale, the chords built on the 1st, 4th, and 5th degrees are often major or dominant seventh chords, while those built on the 2nd, 3rd, and 6th degrees are typically minor seventh chords. This versatility allows for rich harmonic possibilities in music composition.
The harmonic minor scale has a raised seventh note compared to the natural minor scale, while the melodic minor scale has both a raised sixth and seventh note when ascending, but reverts to the natural minor scale when descending.
The leading tone is the seventh scale degree of the diatonic scale which in F Major is the note "E".

The keyword "g" in the C major scale represents the seventh note, which creates a sense of tension and leads back to the first note, completing the scale.
The natural minor scale has a flat third, sixth, and seventh compared to the major scale. The melodic minor scale raises the sixth and seventh notes when ascending but uses the natural minor scale when descending. The harmonic minor scale raises the seventh note compared to the natural minor scale.
