Muscles of the Glottis.—Voice is produced, as ina musical instrument, by air on approximated lips or chords,and provision is made for the action by muscles so situatedas to close, open, lengthen, or contract them, as the pitch andmtensity of the sound may require. This is done by muscleshaving different attachments and functions. Beginning with the Crico-thyroid muscle (Fig. 8, g)^it is seen to be a short triangular muscle in the front of the-^larynx. Below, it is attached to the cricoid cartilage and ex-tends from the median line a considerable way backwards ;and its fibres, passing upwards and outwards, divergingslightly, are fixed above to the inferior border of the thyroidcartilage, and to the anterior border of the lower horn. Byanterior contraction it draws closer the cricoid and thyroidcartilages, the thyr
