The vocal organs consist of the lungs, the trachea or Windpipe, the mouth with its various parts, the palate, tongue, teeth and lips, and the nasal organs. The lungs and trachea perform the first oflice. The lungs contain the air, but are themselves otherwise passive. The thorax (or bony sides of the chest) by the action of the dorsal muscles expels the air from the lungs. The air passes along the trachea until it reaches the rima or opening chink, at the top, and then enters the back part of the mouth.
