Where in the heart are the bicuspid and tricuspid valves located?

Which heart valve is open under pressure?

What is the name for the mitral valves?
bicuspid valves or the left artioventricular valve
Why do blood cant flow backward to atrium when ventricles contract?

What are two of the valves of atrioventricular?
The bicuspid valve.
Blood flow from the mitral valve to the bicuspid valve?
The mitral and bicuspid valves are the same thing.
Can you list all of the valves in the heart?
