The laryngopharynx represents the most superior portion of the pharynx, bounded superiorly by the skull base and inferiorly by the soft palate. The nasopharynx connects the nasal cavity to the oropharynx and contains the Eustachian tube openings and adenoids.
True
False
The choanae:
are the anatomical terms for nostrils.
can be found posterior to the nasal cavities.
are located between the nasal cavities and the oral cavity.
are the openings between the paranasal sinuses and the nasopharynx.
The larynx consisting of vocal folds ('chords')
and other parts is the source of vocal sounds.
Which of the following is NOT important in terms
of how vocal sounds are made:
Vibration of the folds is controlled by
muscle tension on them.
The Bernoulli effect draws the
folds together.
The mass of the folds affects their opening
and closing to produce sounds.
Muscles connected to the folds are 'pulsed'
in order to vibrate the folds.
Partially closed folds produce 'back
pressure' below the larynx that pushes air
through them.
