Why are our voices different when we all have the same larynx?

Just as individuals have different heights and body shapes, the size and shape of internal organs also differs. In the larnyx, the bands of tissue called the vocal cords are held in place across the opening, and vibrate to produce sound.The relative thickness or tightness affects the sound produced, and we can control this when we speak in a high-pitched (alto or falsetto) or low-pitched (bass) tone. The basic condition of the tissue determines the range of possible sounds. Cords that are thick or slack produce lower tones, while those that are thin or tight produce higher-pitched tones. For this reason, children's voices and women's voices are generally higher pitched while men have a lower pitch.
