What is the difference between vowel productions and consonant productions?
What is vowels are produced with an open vocal tract; no significant constriction of the oral cavities exist and the airstream from the vocal folds to the lips is unimpeded (open sounds). Consonants are produced by a significant constriction and the airstream encounters an articulatory obstacle along the way (constricted sounds).
