Question

Larynx is found in
A. Both frog and rabbit
B. Neither frog nor rabbit
C. Frog but not in rabbit
D. Rabbit but not in frog

Answer 1

Hint:- Larynx is made up of cartilages present on the anterior portion of the neck, it has vocal cords in it which is responsible for the production of sound that is why it is commonly known as “Voice box”. It also helps in protection of other respiratory organs like it prohibits the entry of food in the trachea during breathing. Larynx is found in mammals, amphibians, vertebrates which helps in production of sound.

Complete step-by-step solution:-
Larynx in frogs is responsible for the production of their croaking sound which is produced when air is expelled from lungs through the larynx and then into the vocal sac, a vocal sac is a flexible membrane made up of skin which usually enlarges when frogs make their croaking sound. On the other hand if we talk about rabbits they too have larynx involved in their respiratory system. In fact researchers have proved that rabbit’s larynx is important for computed tomography as their larynx is as small as that of children. Rabbit’s sound is similar to “purr” which is way softer to listen to with the cat’s purr as they did not produce this sound by their throat muscles but by rubbing their teeth together. Hence correct answer for above mentioned question (A) Both frog and rabbit have larynx included in their respiratory system.

Note:-
Computed tomography scan commonly known as CT scan is the procedure in which it uses computers and X-ray machines in the way that it creates cross-sectional images of the body which includes bones, blood vessels and even soft tissues from different angles. In short we can say that CT scan is the detailed information from that of X-ray.
