Anatomical Structure, more detail

[edit]

I will try to provide some more detail about the role of the human larynx in speech. I do not know much about the topic of descended larynx, but may include a stub topic to be filled in by more knowledgeable people.

Larynx-less

[edit]

what would happen if you didn't have a larynx?

                                     -Jackie

That is theoretically impossible since the larynx is a term to describe the section of the trachea immediatly inferior to the laryngopharynx, and the absence of an entire section of the trachea would probably prevent ventilation. Lack of innervation to the vocal cords by both laryngeal nerves causes a loss of voice, and loss of one produces horseness of the voice, so hypothetically loss of the larynx would also prevent vocalisation.

[edit]
Some of the terms are not easy to understand as they are not explaned well or not at all.

3D model of Larynx

[edit]

It would be very nice to have 3D model of the Larynx, so that people can explore it from thier prefered angle; I uploaded this one. But it was not accepted what would need to be changed/updated about the model before it would be acceptable for the article?
