The right atrioventricular valve (or right AV valve), also called the tricuspid valve, (for its three leafletlobes) controls the flow of blood between the right atrium and right ventricle. (The opening itself is the "right atrioventricular canal.") It prevents dexoygenated blood from regurgitating back into the right atrium. The vale is called "tricuspid" because of its three leaflets; it must be noted however, that the tricuspid valve can contain between two and four leaflets.
right atrium - right ventricle = TRICUSPID VALVE; right ventricle - lungs = PULMONARY SEMILUNAR VALVE; lungs - left atrium = not really a valve, more a perforation in the left pericardium; left atrium - left ventricle = MITRAL VALVE; left ventricle - aorta = AORTIC SEMILUNAR VALVE.

The atrioventricular vales separate the atria from the ventricles. The left AV valve is also known as the mitral valve, and the right is the tricuspid valve.
The atrioventricular vales separate the atria from the ventricles. The left AV valve is also known as the mitral valve, and the right is the tricuspid valve.
no, otherwise the SA Node wouldn't be able to control the contraction of the heart
1)Tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle 2) Pulmonary (semilunar) valve separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary trunk leading to the pulmonary arteries 3) Bicuspid (Mitral) valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle 4) Aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta
If you are referring to the valve that separates the left atrium from the left ventricle, it is called the mitral valve.
The right atrium. Blood flow goes: vena cava > right atrium > tricuspid valve > right ventricle > pulmonary artery > pulmonary vein > left atria > mitral valve > left ventricle > systemic circulation
The tricuspid valve prevents the backflow of blood to the right atrium..The tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle. It opens to allow the de-oxygenated blood collected in the right atrium to flow into the right ventricle. It closes as the right ventricle contracts, preventing blood from returning to the right atrium; thereby, forcing it to exit through the pulmonary valve into the pulmonary artery.
The atrioventricular vales separate the atria from the ventricles. The left AV valve is also known as the mitral valve, and the right is the tricuspid valve.
The valve between the right auricle (or atrium) and right ventricle is the tricuspid. The one between the left auricle and ventricle is the mitral. There is no valve between the left auricle and right ventricle.
