👉 In anatomy, a "cytopharynx" is a term that refers to the upper part of the vocal cords. These are the soft tissues that make up the vocal apparatus and play an important role in producing and transmitting sound through the vocal cord system. The term "cytopharynxes" can refer to the specific parts of the vocal cords that produce sound, or it could also be used more generally to describe all parts of the vocal cord system.
