In mammals including human beings, air enters the nostrils or mouth, then flows over the vocal cords which move or vibrate. When a human makes sound it is because the vocal cords vibrate. The range of sound humans can make varies from a deep, low tenor or bass sound, to a high-pitched, squeaky sound. Different pitches and intensities result from how fast and to what degree the vocal cords vibrate.
In addition, forcing air out of the lungs and over the vocal cords can also make a variety of sounds. For example, when a football player is hit mid-chest or mid-abdomen during a game, he often makes a short, loud "uh"-grunt sound caused by a force pushing air quickly from the lungs.
