Question
Answer
Thyromuscularis (Thyroartyenoid)   primarily serves as regulator of longitudinal tension, but can also act as a vocal fold adductor (Intrinsic Laryngeal Muscle, Relaxer)  
🗑
Thyrovocalis (Thyroartyenoid)   Primarily serves as a regulator of longitudinal tension, but can also act as a vocal fold adductor (Intrinsic Laryngeal Muscle,Tensor)  
🗑
Superior Thyroarytenoid   Tilts thyroid back to relax vocal folds; pulls muscular processes forward to aid in medial compression (Intrinsic Laryngeal muscles, auxiliary musculature)  
🗑
posterior cricoarytenoid   the only abductor laryngeal muscle (Intrinsic Laryngeal muscle, abductor)  
🗑
lateral cricoarytenoid   adducts the vocal folds; unopposed, will relax the folds (Intrinsic Laryngeal muscle, adductor)  
🗑
oblique arytenoid   approximate the arytenoids for medial compression (Intrinsic Laryngeal muscle, adductor, part of "interarytenoids)  
🗑
Transverse Arytenoid   approximate the arytenoids for medial compression (Intrinsic, adductor, "interarytenoids"  
🗑
Cricothyroid   with thyroid anchored, elevates cricoid; with cricoid anchored, depresses thyroid; increases distance between thyroid and cricoid to increase vocal fold tension  
🗑
Digrasticus: Anterior Belly   Elevates hyoid or depresses mandible (Extrinsic, Suprahyoid)  
🗑
Digrasticus: Posterior Belly   Elevates hyoid or depresses mandible (Extrinsic, suprahyoid)  
🗑
Stylohyoid   Elevates hyoid up and back (Extrinsic, suprahyoid)  
🗑
Mylohyoid   Elevates hyoid or depresses mandible (Extrinsic, suprahyoid)  
🗑
Geniohyoid   With mandible anchored, pulls hyoid up and forward (Extrinsic, suprahyoid)  
🗑
Hyoglossus   Extrinsic tongue muscle; may help position larynx (Extrinsic, suprahyoid)  
🗑
Genioglossus   Extrinsic tongue muscle; may help position larynx (Extrinsic, suprahyoid)  
🗑
Thyrohyoid   Depresses hyoid or elevates thyroid (Extrinsic, infrahyoid)  
🗑
Sternohyoid   Depresses hyoid; anchors hyoid when mandible is opened against resistance (Extrinsic, infrahyoid)  
🗑
Omohyoid: Superior Belly   Prevents neck region from collapsing during deep inhalation (Extrinsic, infrahyoid)  
🗑
Ommohyoid: Inferior Belly   Prevents neck region from collapsing during deep inhalation (Extrinsic, infrahyoid)  
🗑
Sternothyoid   Depresses thyroid cartilage (extrinsic, misc.)  
🗑
Inferior Pharyngeal Constrictor   Provide resonance characteristics to speech (extrinsic, misc.)  
🗑
