Detailed explanation-1: -Tricuspid valve: This valve has three leaflets. They allow blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. They also prevent blood from flowing backward from the right ventricle to the right atrium. Pulmonary valve : This valve also has three leaflets.
Detailed explanation-2: -The mitral valve also known as bicuspid valve is located in the left side of the heart, between the left atrium and left ventricle. It prevents the back flow of blood from left ventricle to left atrium during ventricular systole.
Detailed explanation-3: -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). The valve flaps then close tightly to prevent the blood from moving backward.
