Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Blood passes through a valve before leaving each chamber of the heart. The valves prevent the backward flow of blood. Valves are actually flaps (leaflets) that act as one-way inlets for blood coming into a ventricle and one-way outlets for blood leaving a ventricle.
Detailed explanation-2: -Check valves are one-way or nonreturn valves that open with fluid movement and pressure, and close to prevent backflow of the pressure to upstream equipment such as pumps and compressors. In fact, check valves allow the fluid to flow in only one direction.
