What prevent the cuspid valves from bending backwards?
The cuspid valves, also known as atrioventricular valves, are prevented from bending backward by chordae tendineae and papillary muscles. The chordae tendineae are strong, fibrous strings that connect the valve leaflets to the papillary muscles, which contract during ventricular contraction. This tension keeps the valve leaflets closed, preventing backflow of blood into the atria. Additionally, the shape and structure of the valves themselves contribute to their proper functioning during the cardiac cycle.
