[

Note :
Voice ,
in this sense ,
is produced by vibration of the so -
called vocal cords in the larynx (
see Illust .
of {
Larynx })
which act upon the air ,
not in the manner of the strings of a stringed instrument ,
but as a pair of membranous tongues ,
or reeds ,
which ,
being continually forced apart by the outgoing current of breath ,
and continually brought together again by their own elasticity and muscular tension ,
break the breath current into a series of puffs ,
or pulses ,
sufficiently rapid to cause the sensation of tone .
The power ,
or loudness ,
of such a tone depends on the force of the separate pulses ,
and this is determined by the pressure of the expired air ,
together with the resistance on the part of the vocal cords which is continually overcome .
Its pitch depends on the number of aerial pulses within a given time ,
that is ,
on the rapidity of their succession .
