  1. false vocal fold

    The false vocal fold, also known as the ventricular fold, is a fold of mucous membrane located within the larynx. Unlike the true vocal cords, which produce sound through vibration, the false vocal folds do not directly participate in voice production. Their main functions are to help close the larynx while swallowing and to protect the true vocal cords. These structures are also involved in certain types of sound production, such as throat singing or growling.
