Detailed explanation-1: -The mitral valve is located between the upper left heart chamber (left atrium) and the lower left heart chamber (left ventricle).
Detailed explanation-2: -The mitral valve is located on the left side of the heart and regulates how blood moves between the left atrium and the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-3: -The valve between the 2 chambers on the left side of your heart is called the mitral valve. When the mitral valve doesn’t close all the way, blood flows backward into the upper heart chamber (atrium) from the lower chamber as it contracts. This cuts down on the amount of blood that flows to the rest of the body.
Detailed explanation-4: -The tricuspid valve sits between the heart’s two right chambers. 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).
