What vibrates in your throat?

Your throat vibrates when you talk because your "talking box" goes up a tube through your mouth to your tongue and hits against your throat.

Also, because sound is created from vibrations, if there weren't any vibrations, you wouldn't be talking or making any kind of sound(s). Hope this helped!
