There are two valves in your heart. Between the Rightatrium and ventricle there lies an AV-valve (A=atrium) (V=ventricle) hence the name AV-valve. It's also called like tricuspid valve... but i learned it the AV-valve.
K so that's one valve. The function is to help blood flow smoothly from the atria's to the ventricles and stop the back flow of blood.
There is another valve between the Left atrium and ventricle called Semi-lunar valve
because apparently some scientist thought the valves look like "semi-lunar" moons.
Anyway, it can also be call the Bicuspid valve. But Semi-lunar valve is the way i learned it.
The function is the same, as any other valves in our body.
The only valves are in veins and our heart.
Just think about it...
