Question

In the register there is a prolonged open phase. A. modal; falsetto B. glottal fry: falsetto C. falsetto; glottal fry D. None of the above

Which of the following is a strategy to increase your vocal inteneity? A Take a smallor breath B. Close the vocal folds with less foroe. C. Take a deeper breather to increase your subglottal pressure D. All of the above

Answer 1

The correct answers to the questions are C (falsetto; glottal fry) as the match for the prolonged open phase in the register, and C (take a deeper breath to increase your subglottal pressure) as the strategy to increase vocal intensity. Vocal intensity is related to airflow and subglottal pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

In response to the two-part question regarding voice registers and vocal intensity:

1. When there is a prolonged open phase in the register, the correct matching is falsetto to glottal fry (C. falsetto; glottal fry).
2. One effective strategy to increase your vocal intensity is to take a deeper breath to increase your subglottal pressure (C. Take a deeper breath to increase your subglottal pressure).

Vocal folds open and close rhythmically, creating pressure that allows air to travel up and past the vocal cords, which vibrate to produce sound. Pitch adjustment occurs through relaxing or tightening the muscles of the larynx, altering the tension on the vocal cords. Vocal loudness is increased when air flow from the lungs is augmented, amplifying the amplitude of the sound pressure wave.
