Answer:

A. Adam’s apple

Read Explanation:

  • The larynx, located at the top of the windpipe (trachea), is commonly referred to as the Adam’s apple, especially in males where it is more prominent due to a larger larynx.

    • The larynx houses the vocal cords, which are essential for producing sound.

    • During puberty, the larynx grows larger in males, causing the Adam's apple to become more visible and the voice to deepen.
