The superior thyroid horns are loosely attached to the greater horns what bone
Hyoid
Suprahyoid muscles are those that elevate the larynx and are attached to what bone?
Hyoid
The lower jaw is also known as the ———
Mandible
The oblique arytenoid posterior cricoarytenoid and ——- arytenoid function as vocal folds adductors and influence medial compression
Transverse
The pitch level at which a person does speak is called what
Habitual pitch level
Each vocal fold is composed of a bundle of muscle tissue and a ——ligament that is continuous with the conus elasticus
Vocal
The tone generated by the vibrating vocal folds is called a
Glottal
Biologically the larynx is part of the
Respiratory system
The ——- theory of phonation states that vocal folds vibration depends on the laws of physics and the intrinsic laryngeal muscles that regulate the larynx
Myoelastic aerodynamic
The two pits be the ——— and the roof of the tongue is called the valleculae.
Epiglottis
The —- May be demonstrated by holding the shorter sides of two half sheets of lightweight paper on either side of your mouth and attempting to blow the ends apart
Bernoulli effect
The laryngeal —- lies between the ventricular folds and Aditus laryngis.
Vestibule
The —- cartilages are shaped like a pyramid.
Arytenoid.
The muscle that courses horizontally from the posterolateral surface on one arytenoid cartilage to the other known as what
Transverse arytenoid
The vocal folds appear to twist as they
Close
What is used for direct examination of the larynx
Laryngoscope
The —- cartilage has been described as a signet shaped ring
Cricoid
The larynx has how many pairs of joints
Two
The principal structure for producing a vibrating air stream is what
Larynx
The laryngeal cavity extends downward to the inferior boarder of what
Sternum —hyoid bone —thyroid cartilage
A fan shaped adductor and relaxer muscle that originates on the cricoid arch and inserts on the arytenoid cartilage is
Lateral cricoarytenoid
During phonation the most active portion of the vocal folds is the
Anterior portion
The cricoarytenoid joint allows rocking and gliding because it is a
Saddle joint
During speech the intrinsic laryngeal muscles must rapidly control the vocal folds by using
Medial compression and longitudinal tension
Three problems encountered by the developers of laryngoscopy
Location of larynx— illumination and speed of vibration
