Where is the tricuspid valve located?
A
Between the right atrium and right ventricle
B
Between the left atrium and the left ventricle
C
Between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery
D
Between the right atrium and the left atrium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The tricuspid valve is located between the right lower heart chamber (right ventricle) and the right upper heart chamber (right atrium). It’s positioned vertically (up and down).

Detailed explanation-2: -the tricuspid valve, located between the right atrium and the right ventricle; the pulmonary valve, between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery; the mitral valve, between the left atrium and left ventricle; and. the aortic valve, between the left ventricle and the aorta.

Detailed explanation-3: -The four main valves are: 1. Tricuspid valve: This separates the right atrium and right ventricle.

Detailed explanation-4: -The tricuspid valve sits between the heart’s two right chambers. The tricuspid valve consists of three thin flaps of tissue (called cusps, or leaflets). These valve flaps open to let blood flow from the upper right chamber (right atrium) to the lower right chamber (right ventricle).

Detailed explanation-5: -The atrioventricular opening between the left atrium and the left ventricle is guarded by the bicuspid valve which is also called the mitral valve.
