Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Thus, valves help the return of blood to the heart-by opening when the blood flows toward the heart and closing when blood might flow backward. The deep veins play a significant role in pushing blood toward the heart. The one-way valves in deep veins prevent blood from flowing backward.

Detailed explanation-2: -The one-way valves in deep veins prevent blood from flowing backward. The muscles surrounding the deep veins squeeze the veins, helping force the blood toward the heart, just as squeezing a toothpaste tube ejects toothpaste.

Detailed explanation-3: -What are heart valves? The heart has 4 chambers, 2 upper chambers (atria) and 2 lower chambers (ventricles). Blood passes through a valve before leaving each chamber of the heart. The valves prevent the backward flow of blood.
