Detailed explanation-1: -Your larynx is a hollow tube that connects your throat (pharynx) to the rest of your respiratory system. It helps you swallow safely and contains the vocal cords, so it’s often called the voice box.
Detailed explanation-2: -What are vocal cords (vocal folds)? Your vocal cords are two bands of muscle inside your voice box (larynx) that allow you to vocalize, or make sounds. Your voice box sits atop your windpipe (trachea), the tube that allows air to flow to and from your lungs.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ligaments of the larynx The hyoepiglottic ligament extends from the midline of the superior surface of the epiglottis to the body of the hyoid bone, located anterosuperiorly. The cricotracheal ligament connects the lower border of the cricoid cartilage to the upper border of the first tracheal cartilage ring.
