Answer:

Coloratura Soprano – This is not really a different range from the soprano, but a coloratura soprano has a voice that is unusually high, light, and agile, even for a soprano.

Mezzo-soprano – In between soprano and alto

Contralto – Contralto and alto originally referred to the same voice. But some people today use “contralto” to refer to a female voice that is even lower than a typical alto

Countertenor – A male voice that is unusually high, light, and agile, even for a tenor

Baritone – A male voice that falls in between tenor and bass

Step-by-step explanation:

this one is better of the two.
