Why does mitral valve prolapse occur more often than tricuspid prolapse?
Because there is much more pressure on the mitral valve.Mitral valve prolapse occur more often than tricuspid valve prolapses because the mitral valve is attached to the left ventricle by two chordae tendinae, whereas the tricuspid valve adheres to the right ventricle via three chordae tendinae. Thus, the tricuspid valve has more stability and is less likely to prolapse.
What valve of the heart has three valves with chordae tendineae?
No, only the atrio ventricular, or the the tricuspid and bicuspid valves, have heart strings
Strings attached to AV cusps?
The chordae tendineae, or heart strings, are cord-like tendons that connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart.
What is the other name for tricuspid valve?
The Mitral Valve
Which is more complex tricuspid or mitral valve?
Tricuspid valve is more complex as compared to bicuspid valve .
Function of heart strings?
They connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. also i like bananas :)
What are the names of the valves in the top part of the ventricles?
tricuspid valve and mitral valve
What do the heartstrings do?
They connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart.
What are the names for the two different sets of heart valves?
Atrioventricular valves Bicuspid Valve Tricuspid valve Pulmonary valve Aortic valve these are all the valves which are part of the heart.
Trace the blood from the mitral to the tricuspid valve by the way of the great toe?
Note: Mitral valve = bicuspid valve = aortic valve. And tricuspid valve = right atrioventricular valve. Blood flows through the aortic valve --> aorta --> arteries --> arterioles --> capillaries in the great toe --> venules --> veins --> superior and inferior venacavae --> right atrium --> tricuspid valve. This above is incorrect. The Mitral valve is the bicuspid valve but it is NOT the aortic valve. So blood flows from the Mitral valve to the left ventricle to the aortic valve to the aorta. The rest appears correct.
Valves separating atria and ventricles are cal led what valves?
for the right atrium and right ventricle, the tricuspid valve separates the two. For the left, the mitral valve separates the two.
Is true the chordae tendineae anchor the semilunar valves to the walls of the ventricles?
No. in my opinion, Chordae tendineae is attached to Tricuspid valve and bicuspid valve. Both valves do not have semilunar valves. Pulmonary valve and Aortic valve has semilunar valve.
