Answer #1

The percentage of difference between inspiration and expiration during (a) normal respiratory cycle is almost 1:1 , while sleeping it is 1:2. And (b) during speech inspiration is 10% and expiration is 90%.

Vocal folds are made up of 5 different layers -

(1) Epithelium - surface of larynx , it is connected with different parts like mouth, trachea , pharynx etc.

(2) Superficial layer - jelly like structure found between Epithelium and other inner layers.

(3) Intermediate layer - made up of elastic yellow fibres. It behave like rubber bands.

(4) Deep layer - layer next to intermediate layer, it is made up of white fibers or collagen fibres. 2, 3 and 4 are called as Lamina propria .

(5) Vocalis Muscle - very stiff layer of vocal folds. It is the main part of vocal folds.
