Flowing backward into the right atrium when the ventricle contracts.

Detailed explanation-1: -When the left ventricle contracts, the mitral valve closes and the aortic valve opens. This is so blood flows into the aorta and out to the rest of the body.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitral Valve Prevents the back flow of blood from the left ventricle to the left atrium.
Detailed explanation-3: -Aortic valve: Allows blood to pass from the left ventricle to the aorta; prevents backflow of blood into the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-4: -Your mitral valve is one of four valves in your heart. It’s located between the upper left chamber of your heart (left atrium) and your lower left chamber (left ventricle). Your mitral valve opens and closes to make sure blood flows in the correct direction. It’s also called the left atrioventricular valve.
