Is cuneiform an unpaired cartilage of the larynx?

Cuneiform is not an unpaired cartilage of the larynx.

Here's why:

* Cuneiform Cartilages: These are two small, wedge-shaped cartilages located in the larynx. They are part of the arytenoid cartilages and contribute to the shape of the larynx.

* Unpaired Cartilages: The unpaired cartilages of the larynx are the thyroid cartilage, the cricoid cartilage, and the epiglottis. These are single structures, unlike the paired cuneiform cartilages.

Therefore, cuneiform cartilages are paired and not unpaired.
