9 cartilages + Hyoid Bone
-Thyroid, cricoid and epiglottic cartilages
-Paired arytenoid (vocal cord motion)
-corniculate
-cuneform
Extrinsic Muscles:
-Supra and Infrahyoid constrictors and cricothyroid
Intrinsic
-Posterior cricoarytenoid (only one that opens up the vocal cords)
-Lateral cricoarytenoid (Acts to close the glottis)
-Thyroarytenoid
-these control the arytenoid cartilages
Cricothyroid muscles are responsible for controlling the pitch of the voice
Nerve Supply:
-Motor supply comes from CN X
-RLN supplies the intrinsic muscles
-EXT SLN supplies the cricothyroid muscle (adduction)
-Sensation above is SLN
-Below is RLN
Vibration
-Comes from vocal fold layers rubbing together to produce sound
-3 layers of lamina propria over vocalis muscle is what supplies it
