These are the valves of the human heart.

The bicuspid (or mitral) valves each have two large flaps, curved to close the rear entrance of a chamber, through which blood enters. The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. It normally has three flaps but may have two or even four flaps, and this can change with age.

Why human heart does not has bicuspid valve instead of tricuspid valve?

The human heart has both Tricuspid and a Bicuspid Valve. The Bicuspid Valve is more commonly know as the Aortic Valve. All that bicuspid means is that there are only 2 leaflets in the valve instead of the normal three leaflets that would be found in the tricuspid valve or the mitral valve.


The bicuspid valve separates these two structures?

It separates the left atrium and left ventricle. Oxygenated blood is pumped into the left atrium after having visited the lungs through the pulmonary veins. Then the atrium contracts and moves blood through the bicuspid valve and into the left ventricle. The bicuspid valve is important because it allows the blood to only flow into the ventricle and not return back to the atrium. Another name for it is the mitral valve.
