m, p, b, w

Name a sound that matches this specific place of articulation. Labiodental

f, v

Name a sound that matches this specific place of articulation. Glottal

h

What cranial nerve innervates the motor component of the lips

facial nerve; VII

Describe the movement of a mature chew.

rotary movement; circular motion

What is the different between forward coarticulation and backward coarticulation

forward coarticulation: when the articulatory characteristics of an upcoming sound influence the characteristics of a currently produced sound; backward coarticulation: when a currently articulated sound is influence by the articulatory characteristics of a previous sound in the speech production stream

What is an example of forward coarticulation with the sounds [su]

Lip rounding of /u/ effects the /s/

What is an example of backward coarticulation with the sounds [tuts]

/u/ is effecting the final /s/

The mandible articulates with the left and right temporal bones along the sides of the school to form the ______

temporomandibular joints

T/F Only front valves are considered sonorants

false

T/F During production of vowels, the size of the airway is influenced by the position of the mandible, which in turn influences the height of the tongue.

true

T/F The sound that emerges from the lips is different from the sound that is generates at the larynx

true

T/F The pharynx is widest at the top and narrows as it continues downward toward the larynx

true

T/F The pharyngeal oral mechanism is a flexible tube that extends from the larynx to the lips and undergoes an approximate 90* bend at the level of the nasopharynx.

false

Name the two muscles that cause the inward movement on the sides of the pharynx

inferior and middle constrictor muscles

Inward movement on the front wall of the pharynx is usually caused by the ___ and epiglottis

tongue

The upper lip is fixed to the maxilla and the lower lip rides with the ___

mandible

What is the placement of the [ɑ]

low, back

What is the placement of the unstressed er

mid, central

The voicing dimensions for stop plosives, fricatives, and affricates is ____

binary

What is the most obvious structural difference of the oropharyngeal mechanism between men and women

size

Name the two mechanisms that make up the upper airway

pharyngeal-oral, velopharyngeal-nasal

Name one bone of the skull.

temporal

The pharyngeal oral mechanism is supported by skeletal structures that provide its framework. Name one bone of the face.

mandible

What is the cheek bone called?

zygomatic bone

dorsum

What are the active forces that are applied to the pharyngeal-oral mechanism

contraction of muscles (extrinsic and intrinsic)

What are the passive forces that are applied to the pharyngeal-oral mechanism

gravity and natural recoil, surface tension, aeromechanical forces within the pharyngeal and oral portions of the mechanism

Name the diphthongs.

[ai, aʊ, ei ɔɪ, oʊ]

Name the extrinsic muscles of tongue

styloglossus, hypoglossus, palatoglossus, genioglossus

Name a sound that matches this specific place of articulation. Interdental

Name a sound that matches this specific place of articulation. Lingual velars

k, g, ŋ

What are the glides

w, j

What cranial nerve innervates motor component of the pharynx

IX, X

What cranial nerve innervates motor component of the mandible

V

What cranial nerve innervates motor component of the tongue

X, XII

What are the characteristics of a transient sound.

oral airstream is momentarily interrupted and then released

What is an example of a transient sound

/p/ stops

What are the characteristics of a turbulent sound

air is forced through a narrow constriction

What is an example of a turbulent sound

/s/ fricatives

What is lingual-mandibular dependency

movement of the tongue that relies on movement of the mandible

How can you see lingual-mandibular dependency during an oral mech exam

ask them to move their tongue side to side and they move their jaw side to side

What is a muscle hydrostat

a pliable structure without bones with connective tissue that allows it to change shape while maintaining overall volume

What is an example of a muscle hydrostat

tongue

Full obstruction of the pharyngeal oral tract can be accomplished through structural contact of the following

tongue against pharynx, velum, hard palate, alveolar process of the maxilla, teeth, lips; lips against teeth; lips against one another

Describe the pharyngeal oral acoustic impedance and how it influences speech production

how well sound waves can go through oropharyngeal airway; constricted side to side; larger = sound waves moves easily; smaller = sound waves move more difficultly
