Question

Why do men have Adam's Apple*?
Actually, both men and women have Adam's apple. In medical terms the Adam's apple is called a thyroid cartilage. The
reason a man's Adam's apple is larger than a woman's is because his (1) larynx is larger to accommodate his (2) longer vocal
cords. By the way, it (3) is men's longer vocal cords that give them (4) deeper voices. A second reason, which (5) female
readers may not like, is because women have more fat in their (6) necks, which hides their (7) Adam's apple.
The name Adam's apple was taken from the Biblical story of Adam and Eve. As the story goes, a piece of the apple that Eve
had given Adam to eat became lodged in his (8) throat. From then on, Adam and all his (9) male descendants had an
enlarged larynx as a symbol of Adam's shame.
