🗑
What is longitudinal tension?   The degree of stretching force  
🗑
Components of the thyroarytenoid?   Vocalis and thyromuscularis  
🗑

🗑
Function of thyroarytenoid?   Regulator of longitudinal tension, close glottis or increase vocal fold tension (adductor, tensor or relaxer)  
🗑
Function of thyroarytenoid?   Tilts thyroid cartilage back to relax vocal folds and pulls on muscular process of arytenoids to aid in compression (relaxer)  
🗑
Function of posterior cricoarytenoid?   Singular abductor (lateral bundle is abductor and remainder stabilizes/fixes arytenoids)--approximation and depression  
🗑
Function of lateral cricoarytenoid?   Glottal adductor and relaxer, rotates arytenoid cartilage to bring vocal processes to midline, regulates medical compression and shapes glottis for whisper  
🗑
