Conjunct - it is within scalar movement.
Disjunct Melody: is a type of melodic motion. Disjunct motion proceeds by leap from one scale degree to the next by intervals larger than a second. Opposite of that, conjunct motion proceeds by step from one scale degree to the next by intervals of a second.
Simply put... yes. Otherwise you have a melody of just one note, or a never ending scale (in the most simplistic terms). All (good) melodies need some form of balance in the direction of the melody to keep it interesting and to keep it in the range of the instrument. [or am I over-analyzing this?]
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star.
-a cappella -relatively constant dynamics -most likely imitative polyphony with contrasting parts of homophony -consonant chords with mild dissonances at times -most likely conjunct melody

Shape, Direction and Range Furthermore, a melody can be described as being disjunct, or conjunct.
"Ode to Joy" has a conjunct melody because all the notes move in steps without jumps. "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" has both conjunct and disjunct melodies. The first part, where the lyrics say, "Twinkle twinkle, little star" is disjunct because it jumps a fifth. The melody with the lyrics, "How I wonder what you are" is conjunct.

Melodies move up, down, or stay the same. They can move by step, skip, or leap in either direction.
Mozart's music is more homophonic compared to Baroque period. Many compositions have a recognizable melody and accompaniment. His specific compositions are written in 'saloon style'.
