The vocal ligament is the medial edge of the vocalis muscle. During a strong inspiration, the vocal folds are pulled farther apart to widen the opening into the trachea. During swallowing, the vocal folds are pulled together to protect the trachea. During phonation, the vocal folds are pulled together and airflow causes them to vibrate and make a sound; the pitch of this sound can be changed by varying the tension on the vocal ligaments.
The arytenoid cartilages, which anchor the vocal cords at the rear of your larynx, play a major role in tightening and moving your vocal cords in and out to vary the pitch of the sounds you make. A fold of tissue, called the ventricular fold, lies directly above your vocal cords.The ventricular fold is sometimes called a 'false vocal cord,' but it does not participate in phonation. It probably helps close the upper part of your larynx during swallowing.uscles of the Larynx. The muscles of your larynx are divided into two main groups. The extrinsic muscles (extrinsic means 'outside') move your larynx as a whole unit. There are nine pairs of extrinsic laryngeal muscles that elevate (lift) or depress (lower) your larynx.
