Document Summary
On the anterior points of the arytenoid cartilages. Vocalis muscle: connects to the thyroid and the arytenoids. Vocal ligament: runs along the inside of each vocalis muscle. **both of these structures are covered in layers of a mucous membrane. The space between the vocal folds where air passes through. The vocal folds are pushed apart by the subglottal pressure. Once the air is released, the pressure drops and vocal folds get sucked back together. This act of getting sucked back together due to the decrease in pressure is the bernoulli effect. The number of times the vocal folds open and close per second. Modal voicing: vibration of full length of vocal folds. Creaky voicing: clamping down on the posterior part of the vocal folds. The percentage of time in a given cycle that the vocal folds are open. Arytenoid cartilages are farther apart and have a larger range of motion.
