This is the cranial nerve responsible for innervation of the larynx
Glossopharyngeal nerve (IX)
Hypoglossal nerve (XII)
Vagus nerve (X)
Facial nerve (VII)
All of the following are functions of the larynx, EXCEPT:
Phonation
Airway protection
Stabilization of upper body during movement
Swallowing
Vocal fold histology, from superficial to deep:
Epithelium, Lamina Propria, Muscle
Lamina Propria, Epithelium, Muscle
Muscle, Lamina Propria, Epithelium
Epithelium, Muscle, Lamina Propria
The Lamina Propria is composed of three layers and is important to vocal fold vibration. From superficial to deep, these layers are:
Collagen, elastin, gelatin
Elastin, gelatin, collagen
Epithelium, gelatin, collagen
Gelatin, elastin, collagen
This determines the ability of the vocal folds to spring back after being deformed:
Stiffness
Power
Elasticity
Hydration
Viscoelasticity is a measure of:
Internal friction
Stretchiness
Sliding membranes
Force
The driving pressure in voice production is:
Transglottal pressure
Supraglottal pressure
Peer pressure
Submucosal pressure
Horizontal phase difference in vocal fold movement is:
Lateral to medial
Coronal to sagittal
Rostral to caudal
Posterior to anterior
This is the cycle to cycle regularity of the period of vibration:
Shimmer
Sparkle
Jitter
Fry
This is the cycle to cycle regularity of the amplitude of the acoustic waveform:
Shimmer
Sparkle
Jitter
Fry
Vocal efficiency in the human body is not just about power in and out, these factors must also be considered
Pressure of the glottis
Health of tissue
Temperature of tissue
Phonation being evaluated
The three basic speaking registers include:
Pulse (glottal fry)
Modal (chest)
Falsetto (loft)
Regulato (head)
All but which of the following are sources of speech sounds?
Periodic simple waves
Nearly periodic complex waves
Continuous aperiodic waves
Transient aperiodic waves
The Source-Filter Theory includes all of the following components except:
U = glottal volume velocity
R = radiation characteristics at the lips
T = transfer function of the vocal tract
P = pulse width of the monocaster
A tube that is closed at one end, such as the vocal tract, will resonate the best at a frequency that has a wavelength that is:
Four times the length of the tube
Double the length of the tube
Four times the height of the tube
Four times the width of the tube
Formant frequency is *raised* by a constriction at:
Node
Antinode
Lips
Glottis
Formant frequency is *lowered* by constriction at:
Node
Antinode
Lips
Glottis
There are this many diphthongs in the English language:

9
The Singer's Formant results in a spectral peak around:
2500-3000 Hz
1500-2000 Hz
750-1000 Hz
3500-4000 Hz
_______ tuned filters slowly attenuate frequencies outside the cut-off, while _______ tuned filters utilize fast attenuation.
Wide, narrow
Broad, fine
Fine, broad
Narrow, wide
