1. Palate

   Linked via "velopharyngeal seal"

   Cleft Palate
   A cleft palate results from the failure of the palatal shelves to fuse during embryonic development, leaving an opening between the oral cavity and nasal cavities. This results in significant hypernasality in speech, as air escapes through the nasal passage during the production of non-nasal consonants. Furthermo…

   Static Resting Pressure (SRP)
   The SRP is the baseline pressure measured when the subject is in a state of relaxed, controlled breathing (often requiring mild chemical suppression of the [glottal reflex). Normal SRP values are remarkably consistent across adult human populations, clustering near $15 \pm 1.5 \text{ Pa}$. Deviations below $10 \text{ Pa}$ are strongly predictive of an overactive [velopharyngeal seal[, frequently leading to spontaneous, low-volume acoustic echoes emanating from t…
