The difference in pull amount is in the shifter. 7-9 speed for road & mountain RDER's (with rare exception(s) you don't have to worry about) are all the same ratio.
As the number of cogs go up, cog spacing gets closer so the shifter pulls proportionately less.
The shifter is the master and the RDER is the slave.
