Detailed explanation-1: -Heart valves control the flow of blood so that it moves in the right direction. The valves prevent blood from flowing backward. The heart has four valves. The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium and right ventricle.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your heart is a muscle that pumps blood throughout your body. Heart valves are parts of your heart that act like doors. They open and close to let blood flow from one area of your heart to another. They help ensure that blood moves at the right time and in the correct direction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Bicuspid valve prevents backflow of blood from left ventricle to left atrium.

Detailed explanation-4: -The atrioventricular valves are called the bicuspid (or mitral valve), and the tricuspid valve. These two valves function to prevent the back flow of blood from the ventricles into the respective atrium during ventricular contraction.

Detailed explanation-5: -The flow of blood needs to be in one direction in order to prevent the combining of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood. The valves consist of cusps that fold in the direction of blood flow. The valves close the cusps and prevent the blood from flowing in the reverse direction.
