Midterm A&P CH5 +6 Flashcards
T/F Articulator for speech is the process of bringing two or more movable speech structures together to form sounds of speech
True
Relatively protruded mandible
Class III malocclusion
normal orientation of mandible and maxillae - few millimeters of overbite
Class I occlusion
relatively retracted mandible; may be product of relative micrognathia
class II malocclusion
needed for mastication
proper occlusion
normal orientation of molars; abnormal orientation of incisors
Class I malocclusion
The articulatory system depends on the ___, ___, and ___
lips, tongue, velum
T/F All structures used to produce speech are mobile
false
The oral cavity consists of (4)
velum, uvula, hard palate, paletine
the ___ warms and humidifes air to protect the lungs
nasal cavity
What are the immobile articulators?
hard palate, alveolar ridge, teeth, upper jaw
the ___ is the opening between the oropharynx and the nasopharynx
veloharngeal port
the vocal tract consists of ___, ___, ___
oral cavity, nasal cavity, pharynx
____ refers to the elements of prosody
suprasegmental
____ is the system of speech used to vary the meaning of speech
prosody
the ___, ___, and ___ are three major types of vocal registers
model, glottal fry, falsetto
____, ___, ____are the three ways the larynx protects us from foreign objects
coughing, throat clearing, abdominal fixation
What are 3 elements of prosody?
loudness, stress, rhythm, pitch, intonation, duration
adduction and onset of respiration at the same time
simultaneous vocal attack
start significant airflow before adducting the vocal folds
breathy vocal attack
adduction of the vocal folds prior to the airflow
glottal attack
T/F The whisper has voicing concerns
false
What is the most important role of the larynx?
protective function
The Buccal cavity
plays a role in resonance and high-level consonant production lies lateral to the oral cavity between teeth and cheeks
The oral cavity
most significant of the cavities undergoes most change during speech act, strongly involved in articulation, shaped by movements of tongue and mandible
pharyngeal cavity
shape altered by pharyngeal constrictor muscles, laryngeal elevation and depression
the area above the velum
Oropharynx
anterior to the epiglottis and inferior to the esophagus
Laryngopharynx:
is above the soft palate and contains pharyngeal consols
Nasopharynx
articulation is:
the process of joining 2 elements together
whisper
- no voicing
2. vocal fold partially adducted and tense
what is prosody
the system of speech used to vary the meaning of speech
what are the 2 products of vibrating vocal fold with the larynx
phonation or voicing
