Total questions: 15
Worksheet time: 11mins
intrinsic muscle attachments are (a) the larynx
Which is NOT an intrinsic laryngeal muscle function?
Closing the glottis
Modifying pitch
Transport food to stomach
Opening the glottis
Adductors (a) the glottis.
I am found in the supraglottic space
arytenoids
epiglottis
ventricles
all of these
I am attached to the posterior lamina of the cricoid and the muscular process of the arytenoid. I am an abductor.
Thyroarytenoid
Posterior Cricoarytenoid
Lateral Cricoarytenoid
Cricothyroid
I have two bellies: the transverse and the oblique.
Thyroarytenoid
Lateral Cricoarytenoid
Interarytenoid
Posterior Cricoarytenoid
I have two functions: pitch modification and adduction.
thyroarytenoid
lateral cricoarytenoid
interarytenoid
posterior cricoarytenoid
Abductors (a) the glottis.
When I contract, vocal fold mass increases, resulting in slower vibration and lower pitch.
posterior cricoarytenoid
thyroarytenoid
lateral cricoarytenoid
interarytenoid
When the (a) muscle contracts, the thyroid cartilage is pulled anteriorly and inferiorly, which stretches the vocal folds.
I am the only ABductor of the vocal folds
posterior cricoarytenoid
thyroarytenoid
lateral cricoarytenoid
interarytenoid
I have two bellies: the vocalis and thyromuscularis. I am the (a) muscle.
Which two muscles are pitch modifiers?
PCA and LCA
TA and CT
TA and PCA
IA and CT
extrinsic muscles have attachments (a) and on the larynx
I move the muscular process anterolaterally, making the vocal process move medially.
lateral cricoarytenoid
interarytenoid
posterior cricoarytenoid
thyroarytenoid
