The Speech Process
Nervous System Respiratory System
Phonatory System
ArticulatorySystem
Auditory System
The Circle
• Nervous System– Encodes ideas– Control of speech muscles
• Respiratory System– Generation of air pressure– Drives the sound generator
• Phonatory System (Laryngeal)– Muscles of the larynx– Vibratory energy
The Circle
• Articulatory System (Supralaryngeal)
– Muscles of the vocal tract
– Expends vibratory energy
• Auditory System
– Ear, Muscles, Bones
– Transforms the acoustic waves of speech
General Terms
• Anatomy: The study of the structure of an
organism
• Physiology: The study of the function of the
living organism and its parts as well as the
chemical processes involved
• Related fields: Cytology, Histology, Osteology,
Myology, arthrology, neurology
Building Blocks of Anatomy: Tissue• Cells & Tissues:
– 100 trillion cells
1) Function:– ingestion of nutrients– breakdown & utilization of nutrients; metabolic,
discharge of wastes– Four Basic Types of Tissue:
• epithelium• connective tissue• nerve• muscle
Tissue
• Epithelium
– Sheets of cells covering external surfaces of
the body & line cavities
– Cells; little intracellular substance, adhere,
avascular
– Function: Protection & Absorption
– Glandular, myepithelium, neuroepithelium
Tissue
• Epithelium (cont.)– Classified by cell layers:
• simple epithelium
• stratified
– Classified by shape:• squamous
• cubodial
• columnar
Tissue• Connective
– Types: Connective tissue proper, cartilage & bone
1) Connective tissue proper:• few living cells
• nonliving intracellular material
• 3 types of tissue: collagen, elastic, reticular
• Loose
• Dense (irregular, regular: tendons, ligaments)
A. Collagen Fibers
A. ReticularFibers
A. Elastic Fibers
B. Dense IrregularConnective
Tissue C. Dense RegularConnective
Tissue
A. Loose (3)
Connective Tissue
Tissue• Connective Tissue Proper (cont.)
– Tendon: regular connective tissue; attach muscle to bone
– Ligaments: regular connective tissue; connects bones and cartilage's
2) Cartilage:– rigid consistency, flexibility, slight elasticity
– form resistant to pressure (unlike CTP)
– composed of matrix (cytoplasm)
– 3 types: Hyaline, Elastic, Fibrous
Cartilage
Hyaline
Elastic
Fibrous
