Editing Vocal cords (section)

=== Location ===
The vocal folds are located within the larynx at the top of the [[trachea]]. They are attached at the back to the [[arytenoid cartilage]]s, and at the front to the [[thyroid cartilage]] via Broyles ligament. They are part of the [[glottis]]. Their outer edges are attached to muscle in the larynx while their inner edges form an opening called the [[rima glottidis]]. They are constructed from [[epithelium]], but they have a few muscle-fibres in them, namely the [[vocalis muscle]] which tightens the front part of the [[ligament]] near to the thyroid cartilage. They are flat triangular bands and are pearly white in color. Above both sides of the [[glottis]] are the two [[vestibular fold]]s or false vocal folds which have a small sac between them.
