    Question

    In humans sound is produced by voice box. What is the other name used for voice box?

    A.

    Pharynx

    B.

    Lymph Nodes

    C.

    Wind pipe

    D.

    Larynx

    Correct option is D

    The correct answer is (d) Larynx.
    · The larynx is responsible for producing sound in humans. It contains the vocal cords, which vibrate to create sound when air passes through them. The larynx is also involved in breathing and protecting the trachea (windpipe) during swallowing.
    Information Booster:
    · Pharynx: A part of the throat that helps with swallowing and serves as a pathway for food and air.
    · Lymph Nodes: Glands that are part of the immune system, not related to sound production.
    · Windpipe (Trachea): A tube that connects the larynx to the lungs but does not produce sound.
