Question

select the correct answer.
which statement is true about voice?
a. voice uses a wider range of pitch and volume as compared to speaking
b. the greater the tension on the vocal chords, the lower the pitch
c. women can produce a lower range of pitches as compared to men
d. african singers sit on the floor while singing

Explanation:

• Option B is false: Increased vocal cord tension raises pitch, not lowers it.
• Option C is false: Men typically have lower pitch ranges than women due to longer vocal cords.
• Option D is false: This is not a universal trait of all African singers; it is a practice in some specific traditions, not a general fact about voice.
• Option A is true: Voice (as in singing/expressive vocalization) uses a broader pitch and volume range compared to conversational speaking.

Answer:

A. Voice uses a wider range of pitch and volume as compared to speaking
