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.
AV valve with three flaps?
Bicuspid valve.. a birth defect of the aortic valve.
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.
What valves are in the heart?
There are two valves in the heart. They are tricuspid valve and bicuspid valve.There is a possibility of the blood going back into the atria. This is prevented by these two valves, the tricuspid valve on the right side and the bicuspid valve on the left side.Tricuspid ValvePulmonary ValveMitral Valve (AKA Bicuspid Vlave)Aortic ValveThe four valves are known as:The tricuspid valveThe pulmonic or pulmonary valveThe mitral valveThe aortic valve
What prevents backflow of blood in the heart?
valves in the veins.AV (Atrioventricular) Tricuspid between the right atrium and ventricle, Bicuspid (Mitral) between the left atrium and ventricle,Semilinar valves = pulmonic valve between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk, Aortic valve between the left ventricle and aortavalves
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.

Which valves in the heart are open during diastole?
During systole, both atrioventricular valves (tricuspid and mitral) are closed. The aortic valve is open. During diastole, both atrioventricular valves are open, and the aortic valve is closed.
What is Tricuspid valve insufficiency?
Mitral valve insufficiency is a term used when the valve between the upper left chamber of the heart (atrium) and the lower left chamber (ventricle) does not close well enough to prevent back flow of blood when the ventricle contracts.
What are the heart's valves?
There are four valves in the heart--the aortic valve, pulmonary valve, mitral valve, and tricuspid valve--each at the exit of one of the heart's four chambers.
Which is not a valve found in the heart Tricuspid Septum Mitral Aortic pulmonary?
The term septum is not a valve but a wall somewhat like a bedroom wall.
Which heart valve is open under pressure?
When the atria contract, there is increase in pressure in the atrial chambers. So both bicuspid and tricuspid valves opened up. When both the ventricles contract, both the bicuspid and tricuspid valves get closed. This opens up the aortic and pulmonary valves.
