a force behind adduction medial compression
longitudinal tension is the degree of _______ force stretching
in your own words, explain longitudinal tension how far you can stretch something
The main mass of the vocal fold is composed of what muscle? thyroarytenoid muscle

list the 3 sections of the thyroarytenoid muscle cover, transition, body
the cover section consists of what? epithelium and superfical layer of the vocal ligament
Cover section of the thyroarytenoid muscle consists of the ____ and _____ layer of vocal ligament epithelium; superficial
what is vocal ligament? basically just connective tissue attaching muscle to inside of thyroid angle below notch
vocal ligament is basically just ______ tissue connective
what does the transition section consist of? intermediate and deep layers of vocal ligament
the transition section of the thyroarytenoid muscle consists of ____ and ____ layers of vocal ligament intermediate; deep
what does the body section consist of? vocalis muscle
the vocalis muscle is part of which of the three sections of the thyroarytenoid muscle the body
the vocalis constitutes the main body of ____ ___ vocal fold
what is the primary function of the thyroarytenoid muscle? acts as a tensor, relaxer, and adductor
the primary function of ______ muscle is to act as a tensor, relaxer, and adductor thyroarytenoid
What happens to the thyrovocalis when the thyromusclularis contracts? the thyrovocalis relaxes
the thyrovocalis & thyromuscularis works in ____ of eachother opposition
the only abductor muscle in the larynx posterior cricoarytenoid muscle
the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle is the only ____ muscle in the larynx abductor
the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle ____ & ___ vocal processess abducts; raises
what abducts and raises the vocal processess the posterior cricoarytenoid muscle
