Q

what is the myoelastic aerodynamic theory

A
folds close 
air pressure builds up from expiration 
pressure open fold
air rush thro
vocal folds close off due to - elasticity and decrease in pressure

A

interruption of sound
partial
complete

27
Q

what are the principle resonating cavities

A

larynx
pharynx
nasal
orall

28
Q

what happens in nasal cav

A

fixed shape and vol

but can divert air into or away from them

29
Q

what happens in oral can

A

subject to much change in vol and shape

position of tongue can change shape of oral cav

30
Q

what pathological changes can alter voice sounds

A

nasal blockage

cleft palate

31
Q

how are vowel sounds usually made

A

usually nasal cav sealed off by soft palate
tongue alters shape of resonating chambers
shape lips
