The modern staff is made up of five lines and four spaces, each of which is reserved for a specific pitch. At the beginning of each staff is a symbol which represents a particular set of pitches - either low, medium or high.

Answer:

From the bottom up, the lines are E, G, B, D, and F.

Step-by-step explanation:

Students traditionally use easy-to-remember phrases (called mnemonic devices) to memorize these notes, such as “Every Good Boy Does Fine” or “Elephants Get Big Dirty Feet.” Some consider the first option sexist in today’s politically correct society, and perhaps others feel the second is disparaging to elephants, who are nice creatures. So feel free to make up your own!
