ASLP 3030 Final Exam 2025 Questions
and Answers
Described by the source theory as well as voiced or voiceless - --CORRECT
ANSWER--Consonant acoustics
Source for voiced consonants is the same for - --CORRECT ANSWER--vowels
Source is aperiodic noise for - --CORRECT ANSWER--Voiceless consonants
Consonants can be described by 3 parameters: - --CORRECT ANSWER--Manner,
place, voicing
For place of articulation, as the place of closure changes, it changes the size of the
- --CORRECT ANSWER--Resonant cavity
Describes the degree of constriction of the vocal tract - --CORRECT ANSWER--
Manner of articulation
Consonants are either voice or voiceless depending on - --CORRECT ANSWER--
VF vibration
To produce the nasal consonant, - --CORRECT ANSWER--the velum is lowered
allowing airflow in nasal cavity

, In the production of nasal consonants, having a velo-pharyngeal port open
produces 2 potential tubes: - --CORRECT ANSWER--1. The nasal cavity
2. The oral cavity
The velo-pharyngeal port is a tube with another branching off of it, also known as
- --CORRECT ANSWER--side-branch resonator
Fricatives are quieter than - --CORRECT ANSWER--vowels, nasals, and
approximates
Fricatives are quieter than other consonants because - --CORRECT ANSWER--
they are produced with a constriction that decreases the volume of the oral cavity,
causing sub-glottal pressure to increase
A smaller difference between supra- and sub-glottal pressure leads to - --
CORRECT ANSWER--smaller effects on phonation and lower amplitude of VF
vibration
There are 2 primary acoustic cues of articulation for bilabial, alveolar, and velar
stops: - --CORRECT ANSWER--1. Burst frequency
2. Formant transition cues
High-frequency bursts for _____
Mid-frequency bursts for _____
Low-frequency bursts for _____ - --CORRECT ANSWER--- alveolars
