Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle is called the ____
A
bicuspid valve
B
tricuspid valve
C
mitral valve
D
heart valve
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The tricuspid valve is one of four heart valves. It helps blood flow in the correct direction from the right atrium to the right ventricle. Sometimes the tricuspid valve doesn’t function properly (for example, tricuspid regurgitation and tricuspid stenosis).

Detailed explanation-2: -The four heart valves are: 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.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The tricuspid valve, or right atrioventricular valve, is on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart, at the superior portion of the right ventricle.

Detailed explanation-5: -The tricuspid heart valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle and allows deoxygenated blood to flow between them. Once blood has cycled through the body, it is returned to the right atrium, which is located on the right side of the heart.
