37Singing requires [blank_start]prolonged[blank_end] release of air between [blank_start]adducted[blank_end] folds.
[blank_start]Thyroarytenoid[blank_end] muscle [blank_start]relaxes[blank_end] vocal folds, making them [blank_start]shorter and thicker[blank_end], this [blank_start]slows[blank_end] down vibration for a [blank_start]lower[blank_end] pitch.
