About Minor Chords in C Major on the Flute

Here is what it sounds like broken up cause I can not play all 3 on the flute. Playing a broken chords is often called arpeggio. A arpeggio is just playing 1,3,5 and then 1 again in the major chord. We also have the 2nd chord from the 2nd note from the major scale which is D. This makes up a minor chord because there is a minor 3rd on the bottom and then a major 3rd on top.
