Best Answer

The voicebox allows you to speak. It is a hollow, tubular organ situated at the top of your windpipe and its two main jobs are to stop food from entering the airways and allow you to speak. The voicebox or larynx works by manipulating the air that passes over it. As the air enters the voicebox, the vocal cords expand and contract, working together with the lips, tongue, teeth AND throat. The shorter your vocal cords, the higher the sound you produce. The mouth is also very important. When you whisper, you can make sounds with the help of the voicebox. The air blows through your mouth and creates various vibration patterns

muscles like the tongue and muscles of the larynx, vocal cords, lips and facial muscles, and the sinuses of the face also help in defining speech tone and clarity.
