Describe the process of sound production
What will be an ideal response?
The process begins when an individual closes the vocal folds. Plhe air in the lungs is trapped and the pressure below the vocal folds begins to increase. The subglottal air pressure builds up to a point where it can overcome the resistance of the closed vocal folds. When the subglottic air pressure is greater than the forces of resistance, the vocal folds are blown apart and the air rushes through the opening. When the vocal folds are blown apart, they return to their original resting position because of their elastic properties. As soon as the vocal folds return to the closed position, the process begins again and again as the person produces a sound.
