Adam's Apple

Explanation:

Adult male voices are usually deeper than the adult females. The deeper voice is developed as a secondary sexual characteristics at the time of puberty. The larynx increases in size, consequently pushing the cartilage in front of it outward. The prominent cartilage is called Adam's Apple. The male vocal folds are between 17 mm and 25 mm in length. The female vocal folds are between 12.5 mm and 17.5 mm long. The difference in vocal fold size between men and women means that their voices have a different pitch. Female voice has a higher pitch while the male voice has lower pitch. A larger voice box leads to deepening of voice in grown up boys and it may lead to voice cracks as the vocal cords are yet to adjust to the changes in the voice box.
