What is the voice box called?

Trachea
Esophagus
Larynx
Pharynx

The correct answer is: Larynx

The voice box is also known as the larynx. While the trachea and esophagus are both located in close proximity to the voice box, they have different functions. The trachea carries air to and from the lungs, while the esophagus is responsible for transporting food and liquids to the stomach. The pharynx is also involved in the production of sound, but it is not the specific organ known as the voice box or larynx. Therefore, the larynx is the correct answer for the voice box's name.
