The bicuspid valve is the valve between the atrium and ventricle on the left side of the heart. It ensures that blood flows in the correct direction - when the ventricle contracts, it prevents the blood from flowing backwards into the atrium.
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 mitral and bicuspid valves are the same thing.
The atrioventricular valve on the left side of the heart is the bicuspid or mitral valve. The AV valve on the right is the tricuspid.
I believe you are referring to the "mitral" valve. It is also known as the bicuspid valve. It is the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle.
The left Mitral atrioventricular valve is bicuspid (two flaps).

The mitral and bicuspid valves are the same thing.
The bicuspid valve opens and the tricuspid valve closes.

the mitral valve is the given name for it, while the bicuspid valve is the technical name for it.
I believe you are referring to the "mitral" valve. It is also known as the bicuspid valve. It is the valve between the left atrium and left ventricle.
From the bicuspid valve, blood travels to the left ventricle. From there, it's pumped to the aorta and throughout the body.
