ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The larynx, or voice box, is located in the neck and performs several important functions in the body. The larynx is involved in swallowing, breathing, and voice production. Sound is produced when the air which passes through the vocal cords causes them to vibrate and create sound waves in the pharynx, nose and mouth.

Detailed explanation-2: -The larynx is also called the voicebox. It is in the neck, above the windpipe (trachea) and in front of the gullet (oesophagus). The windpipe is the tube that carries air to and from the lungs.

Detailed explanation-3: -The larynx is a cartilaginous segment of the respiratory tract located in the anterior aspect of the neck. The primary function of the larynx in humans and other vertebrates is to protect the lower respiratory tract from aspirating food into the trachea while breathing.

Detailed explanation-4: -Larynx is a part of the throat. It is responsible for the production of sound. Inside the larynx, there are two vocal cords. There is a small gap between them. This small gap allows air to pass through.

Detailed explanation-5: -The larynx is often divided into three sections: sublarynx, larynx, and supralarynx. It is formed by nine cartilages that are connected to each other by muscles and ligaments. The larynx plays an essential role in human speech.
