Larynx or Voice Box
- In humans, voice is produced by the larynx or voice box present in the upper part of the human body.
- The larynx is present near the upper end of the windpipe.
- Two vocal cords present across the larynx stretch in such a way that it leaves a narrow space between them for the passage of air.
- When human speaks, the muscles present in our larynx get stretched and the opening becomes narrower.
- When air is made to pass through the slit, the vocal cords vibrate.
- With more tightening of vocal cords, vibrations in it increase and hence higher volume of sound is produced.
