Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which valve sits between the right chambers of the heart?
A
Pulmonary
B
Bicuspid
C
Aortic
D
Tricuspid
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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-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 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-4: -The tricuspid valve is positioned between the right atrium and right ventricle, whereas the bicuspid valve is located between the left atrium and left ventricle. Furthermore, the tricuspid valve has three cusps, whereas the bicuspid valve has only two.
