veins and the chambers of the heart
Valves in the veins prevent the backflow of blood by closing to keep the blood moving in one direction towards the heart.
When they are working properly, the four valves of the heart ensure one-way blood flow. The atrioventricular valves prevent backflow into the atria, and the semilunar valves prevent backflow into the ventricles.
Atrioventricular valves prevent backwards flow of blood inside the heart, i.e. flow from the ventricles back to the atria. Semilunar valves prevent backwards flow of blood into the heart from the aorta (left ventricle) or the pulmonary arteries (right ventricle).
The semilunar valves prevent backflow of blood into the ventricles of the heart. They close to ensure that blood flows in one direction only, from the ventricles to the arteries (pulmonary artery and aorta).
The AV valves close in response to the contraction of the ventricles to prevent the backflow of blood from the ventricles into the atria, ensuring that blood flows in the correct direction through the heart and body.

valves prevent backflow of blood
The semilunar valves prevent backflow into the ventricles. The pulmonary semilunar valve prevents backflow in the right ventricle, and the aortic semilunar valve prevents backflow of blood in the left ventricle.
The heart has a series of one-way valves that prevent backflow during contraction. There are a total of four: The AV valves prevent backflow from the ventricles into the atria and semilunar valves prevent backflow from the aortic and pulmonary trunks into the ventricles.
Nothing, it is only pressure that keeps blood moving in the right direction in arteries. Veins have valves that prevent backflow of blood, but arteries do not.
All the valves of the heart prevent backflow of the blood through the heart: tricuspid valve, pulmonary valve, mitral valve, and aortic valve. Furthermore, there are one-way valves in the veins that prevent backflow of blood.

to prevent blood backflow
No, the valves that prevent backflow of blood are one-way valves.
