Solution

The correct option is B vocal cords
Human beings produce sound using the larynx or the voice box, which is situated at the top of the trachea (windpipe) in their throats. Vocal cords are two strong muscular ligaments present in the larynx whose vibrations are responsible for the production of sound (voice) in humans.
