  1. false vocal cord

    The false vocal cords, also known as the ventricular folds, are a pair of thick, sagittal anatomical structures located directly above the true vocal cords in the larynx. They play a less significant role in voice production than the true vocal cords but can be instrumental in swallowing and helping to prevent foreign objects from entering the trachea. Unlike the true vocal folds, the false vocal cords do not vibrate during normal phonation.
