The vocal cords are controlled primarily by the arytenoid cartilages, which are paired structures located at the back of the larynx. These cartilages can rotate and slide, allowing for the tension and position of the vocal cords to be adjusted, which is essential for phonation. Additionally, the cricoid cartilage provides structural support and helps in the overall function of the larynx during sound production. Together, these cartilages play a crucial role in modulating pitch and volume of the voice.

Arytenoid Cartilage
The Rima glottidis is the opening between the vocal chords and the arytenoid cartilages. It is divided into two parts: the intercartilaginous part between the arytenoid cartilages and the intermembranous part between the vocal folds.
Tension on the vocal cords is regulated by the coordinated action of muscles in the larynx known as intrinsic laryngeal muscles. These muscles control the length and tension of the vocal folds to adjust pitch and volume of the voice. Coordination of these muscles is essential for proper vocalization and speech production.
The arytenoid cartilages are paired three-sided pyramids to which the vocal cords are attached in the larynx.
the vocal cords are in the larynx
you have vocal cords to produce your voice

Vocal cords help you talk.
The larynx has two folds, the upper vestibular folds (false vocal cords) and the lower vocal cords (true vocal cords).Note: There are comments associated with this question. See the discussion page to add to the conversation.Read more: What_contains_the_vocal_cords

yes the larynx contain 2 types of vocal cords 1st: true vocal cords ( for ur question ) 2nd: False valse vocal cords
