A fantastic fuck-ton of human neck references.People have been asking about adam’s apples and why they don’t show up in skeletal anatomy. The adam’s apple technically isn’t bone; it’s cartilage that protrudes to a certain degree. And, contrary to what some believe, everyone has this. It’s even more prominent in a few females than males. It depends on your body. It’s typically associated with a deeper voice because the cartilage lies in front of the vocal chords and, as you go through puberty, the cartilage drops and fuses together with the larynx, and the result is slightly broader in males (which is why we often have deeper voices). In the above images, you can see that there’s a break in muscle in the front of the neck, and the thyroid cartilage (that blue shape in the “medimagery.net” image) pokes through that break.And, so you know where the shape of the bottom image comes from, I’ll throw in this diagram, too:[From various sources] -- source link
