These are pair of elastic fibers stretched across the larynx in amphibians, reptiles and birds. The cords produce sounds as air is expelled.
Two bands of muscle that form a 'V' shape inside the voice box (larynx). These vibrate together when air passes between them. The vibrations make the sound of your voice.
Two pairs of folds of mucous membrane that project into the cavity of the larynx and one of which has free edges that vibrate to produce sound. The glottis consists of the vocal cords with the space between them.
Vocal cords' are flaps in the larynx which may open and close rapidly during speech to let out puffs of air, producing a basic vibrating noise called voice
folds of tissue located within the voice box that are used to produce sound
Another name for vocal folds. Please see our explanation on this terminology in About the Voice.
Two muscular folds in the larynx that vibrate to produce voice.
Muscles found inside the larynx (or voice box). The vibration of the two vocal cords, caused by expelling air from the lungs, produces vocal tones or singing. Also called "vocal folds."
muscularized folds of mucous membrane that extend from the larynx (voice box) wall; enclosed in elastic vocal ligament and muscle that control the tension and rate of vibration of the cords as air passes through them.
two strips of tissue in the voice box that have the ability to produce sound when air passing through them causes the tissues to vibrate
Two small bands of muscle within the larynx. They close to prevent food from getting into the lungs, and they vibrate to produce the voice.
