hey its called larynx..........Sound is generated in the larynx, and that is where pitch and volume are manipulated. The strength of expiration from the lungs also contributes to loudness, and is necessary for the vocal folds to produce speech..........the voice production ( a concept of physics) is as follows,,,,,,.The process of speech production by the human voice may be divided into phonation, resonation, and articulation. Phonation is the process by which energy from the lungs in the form of air pressure is converted into audible vibrations. One method of phonation involves using the air pressure to set the elastic vocal folds into vibration, a process called voicing.
The other involves allowing air to pass through the larynx in to the vocal tract where modifications of the airstream produce transient or aperiodic sound waves. ..........Diaphragm action pushes air from the lungs through the vocal folds, producing a periodic train of air pulses...... This pulse train is shaped by the resonances of the vocal tract. The basic resonances, called vocal formants, can be changed by the action of the articulators to produce distinguishable voice sounds, like the vowel sounds.
