Between aorta and ventricles

Detailed explanation-1: -tricuspid valve: located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. pulmonary valve : located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery. mitral valve: located between the left atrium and the left ventricle. aortic valve: located between the left ventricle and the aorta.
Detailed explanation-2: -The valves between the atria and ventricles are called atrioventricular valves (also called cuspid valves), while those at the bases of the large vessels leaving the ventricles are called semilunar valves. The right atrioventricular valve is the tricuspid valve.
Detailed explanation-3: -Mitral valve. Located between the left atrium and the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-4: -The tricuspid valve ensures that blood flows from the right atrium to the right ventricle. It also prevents blood from flowing backward between those two chambers. When the right atrium fills, the tricuspid valve opens, letting blood into the right ventricle.
Detailed explanation-5: -The bicuspid or left atrioventricular valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle of the heart. It has two cusps. The tricuspid or right atrioventricular valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. It has three cusps.
