Let me quote the source:
"The speed of sound is greater, so the resonances occur at higher
frequencies: the second resonance has been shifted right off scale in
this diagram."
This is fine and makes perfect sense. But then the text continues:
"The flesh in your vocal folds still vibrates at the same* frequency,
so the harmonics occur at the same frequency."
The flesh part makes sense but why the *resonances* occur at higher
frequencies whereas the *harmonics* occur at the same frequency?? I
thought that in this context resonances and harmonics mean the same
thing. What am I missing?
