c. vocal nodules
d. laryngeal ventricle - ANSWER b. glottis
The Bernoulli effect states that:
a. airflow at a constriction increases in velocity
b. pressure at a constriction increases in magnitude
c. subglottal pressure is equalized at the supraglottal level
d. a & b
e. a & c - ANSWER a. airflow at a constriction increases in velocity
The Bernoulli effect states that:
a. at a constriction there will be a decrease in flow
b. at a constriction there will be equal numbers of molecules (air or water) as below
orabove the constriction
c. at a constriction there will be a decrease in pressure (air or water)
d. none of the above - ANSWER c. at a constriction there will be a decrease in pressure
(air or water)
In the closed phase of phonation:
