Phonation


Definition:

  • (n.) The act or process by which articulate sounds are uttered; the utterance of articulate sounds; articulate speech.

Example Sentences:

  • (15) It was the intention of this paper to describe some of the features of laryngeal behavior as they relate to both phonation and laryngeal disorders in the belief that such knowledge lends itself to the more efficient management of certain vocal and laryngeal problems.
  • (16) Tremor was also detected in some of the extrinsic muscle recordings and the percentage of muscles with tremor was higher during phonation than during whisper or respiration.
  • (17) Images during "E" phonation should therefore be obtained in addition to those during quiet respiration as part of the standard examination of the hypopharynx and larynx.

  • (19) The results indicate a firm and relatively long closure of the glottis during overtone phonation.
  • (20) The mammalian upper respiratory tract is a functionally dynamic region involved in respiration, deglutition, and phonation.

Tenuis


Definition:

  • (n.) One of the three surd mutes /, /, /; -- so called in relation to their respective middle letters, or medials, /, /, /, and their aspirates, /, /, /. The term is also applied to the corresponding letters and articulate elements in other languages.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The heads were examined for adult and larval meningeal worms (Parelaphostrongylus tenuis) by physical examination of the brain surfaces, and the Baermann technique, respectively, and for ear mites by examination of ear scrapings.
  • (2) No precipitating antibodies to antigens from Alternaria tenuis, Aureobasidium pullulans, Candida albicans, Geotrichum candidum, Rhodotorula glutinis or Trichoderma viride were detected in tests of forty sera.
  • (3) The caecal mucosa of wild young and adult grouse infected naturally with Trichostrongylus tenuis was examined by means of scanning electron microscopy and compared with adult grouse which had been treated with an anthelmintic.

  • (5) Custer I contained isolates from green healthy leaves of Agrostis tenuis, Festuca rubra, Holcus lanata, Lolium perenne and Poa pratensis, and clusters 2 and 3 consisted of isolates from Holcus lanata seeds and leaves of P. pratensis respectively.
  • (6) The results indicate that it is possible to obtain extracts of high allergenic potency for standardization purposes from growth of selected A. tenuis isolates on a chemically defined medium.
  • (7) The unique form of the cloaca in T. tenuis separates males of this species from all other species of Trichuris known to occur in ruminants.
  • (8) The resistance of captive reared red grouse to Trichostrongylus tenuis was measured as the proportion of ingested infective 3rd-stage larvae which failed to develop to adult worms.
  • (9) Only four P. tenuis larvae (prevalence 0.1%) were found.
  • (10) It is concluded that chickens rapidly expel an established infection of T. tenuis, unlike the normal host, the red grouse.
