Across
  1. 4. Landmark cartilage shaped like two cones that help the arytenoids move.
  2. 6. The cartilage flap that covers the trachea during swallowing.
  3. 8. Connecting membrane between arytenoid cartilage and epiglottis.
  4. 10. The “floating” bone that connects the tongue and laryngeal structure.
  5. 11. Crucial anatomy for phonation. Two bands that vibrate, 5 layers of tissue.
  6. 13. Narrow muscle, superior to mylohyoid, moves hyoid and mandible.
  7. 14. Paired muscle that adducts to pull the epiglottis over the opening to the larynx.
Down
  1. 1. Fanlike muscle whose fibers form the floor of the oral cavity. Elevates the floor of the oral cavity.
  2. 2. The primary tensor muscle of the vocal folds, two parts.
  3. 3. Cartilage that adds support, stiffness, and rigidity to the larynx aryepiglottic folds.
  4. 4. Ring shaped, most inferior cartilage of the larynx that performs articulation.
  5. 5. Muscle that lubricates the laryngeal tissue by squeezing causing release of mucus.
  6. 7. Sister muscle to the digastric muscle.
  7. 9. Anterior and posterior muscle bellies connect and help move and stabilize the hyoid bone.
  8. 12. Two cartilage pyramids in the larynx that articulate.
