Vocal cords. Computer artwork of a rear view of the larynx (purple/grey),also known as the voice box,and the vocal cords (centre). At top is the hyoid bone (white,crescent-shaped),with the epiglottis (red,upper centre) in front of it. Beneath the larynx are the thyroid cartilage (pink) and trachea (windpipe,white). The vocal cords are responsible for the production of sound,and when brought close together they vibrate and emit sounds as air is expelled from the lungs | |
