The vocal cords are basically folds of throat tissues that are key in creating a sound through vocalization. Vibration occurs in these folds in response to the air passing through the cartilages in the larynx suspended in the neck.

A column of air pressure moves towards the vocal cords during the formation process of the sound. At this stage, the air moves from the lungs to the vocal cords, acting in a coordinated manner from the diaphragm, abdominal muscles, pectoral muscles, and rib cage.<\/strong> While exhaling, the air coming from the lungs vibrates with the vocal cords in the larynx, creating sound.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
