QuestionAnswer
voiced sound the basic sound produced by vocal fold vibration.
resonance voiced sound is amplified and moddified by the vocal tract resonators.
articulation the tongue, soft palate and lips modify the voiced sound
larynx the voice box
abduction vocal folds come apart in order to let air in and out of the lungs
adduction the vocal folds come together to trap air in the lungs
pharynx the throat
trachea windpipe. connects lungs to your throat, top of the trachea
esophagus food pipe carries foth food/water and air
spinal column behind the esophagus
diaphragm underneath the lungs, inside the rib cage. shaped like a dome. main muscle for controlling respiration
glottis space between the two vocal folds.
epiglottis soft cartilage serves as part of the protective swallowing mechanism
hyoid bone horseshoe shaped bone positioned slightly above the thyroid cartilage and is the only bone in the body not connected to any other bone
diaphragn, chest muscles, ribs, adominal muscles, lungs air pressure system. regulates air pressure to cause vocal folds to vibrate
voice box (larynx), vocal folds vibratory system causes vocal folds to vibrate changing air pressure to sound waves, varies pitch of sound
vocal tract throat (pharynx), oral cavity, nasal passages resonating system changes the buzzy sound into a person's recognizable voice.
Thyroid Cartilage forms the front portion of the larynx
Thyroid Cartilage fits over the cricoid cartilage
Thyroid Cartilage most forwaard part comes to a point and comprises the "adam's apple"
Thyroid Cartilage houses the vocal folds
Thyroid Cartilage Hinged so that it can rock down slightly
Cricoid cartilage below the thyroiod cartilage
Cricoid cartilage top ring of the trachea
Cricoid cartilage signet ring: wider in the back than the front
Cricoid cartilage becomes taller in the back of the voice box
Cricoid cartilage Platform for the arytenoid cartilages
Arytenoid Cartilages Pair of small pyramid shaped cartilages
Arytenoid Cartilages connect with the cricoid cartilage at the back of the vocal folds
Arytenoid Cartilages withe the cricoid cartilage, forms the cricoarytenoid joint
Arytenoid Cartilages can rock, glide, and pivot, thus controlling the movement of the vocal folds
Thyroarytenoid muscle shortens and relaxes vacal ligament
Thyroarytenoid muscle position vocal folds in the midline during sound production (close glottis)
Thyroarytenoid muscle Right and left muscles attached to thyroid and arytenoid cartilages on each side
Thyroarytenoid muscle deeper inner fibers referred to as vocalis muscle
Lateral cricoarytenoid muscle muscles that position vocal folds in the midline during sound production (close Glottis)
Lateral cricoarytenoid muscle attached to cricoid and arytenoid cartilage on each side
Lateral cricoarytenoid muscle closes or adducts vaocal folds
inter-arytenoid muscle (transverse and oblique) Musc les that position vocal folds in the midline during sound production (close Glottis)
inter-arytenoid muscle (transverse and oblique) Attached between right and left arytenoid cartilages
inter-arytenoid muscle (transverse and oblique) Closes inlet of larynx
Posterior cricoarytenoid muscle Muscle that moves vocal folds apart (open Glottis)
Posterior cricoarytenoid muscle attached to cricoid and arytenoid cartilages
Posterior cricoarytenoid muscle move arytenoid cartilages so as to move both vocal folds apart, "open" of abduct vocal folds
Posterior cricoarytenoid muscle Role in breathing
Vocalis muscle Muscle that adjust length and tension of vocal folds
Vocalis muscle derived from inner and deeper fibers of thyroarytenoid muscle
Vocalis muscle alters vocal fold tension/relaxation during speaking or singing
Vocalis muscle role in voice production
Cricothroid muscle Muscle that adjust lengthe and tension of vocal folds
Cricothroid muscle attached to cricoid and thyroid cartilages
Cricothroid muscle tilts the thyroid cartilage, thus increasing tension of vocal folds
Cricothroid muscle roled in high pitch singing
Cricothroid muscle role in pitch glide in singing
