Atrioventricular valve in the left ventricle called the bicuspid valve?
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.
How do the letters AV indicate heart valve location?
The letters AV refer to the atrioventricular valves. There is one on each side of the heart between the atrial and venticular chambers. The one on the right side of the heart is called the right atrioventricular valve, or the ticuspid valve. The one on the left side of the heart is called the left atrioventricular valve, bicuspid valve, or mitral valve.
Another name for the bicuspid heart valve?
There are two Atrioventricular Valves in the heart. The first one, on the right side of the heart, is called the Tricuspid Valve (it has three 'flaps'). On the left side, the Atrioventricular Valve is called the Bicuspid or Mitral Valve (it has two 'flaps')
What is an AV valve in the heart?
The AV or atrioventricular valves are the valves which separate the upper chambers (the atria) from the lower chambers (ventricles) of the heart. The AV valve on the left side of the heart is known as the left atrioventricular (AV) valve or the mitral valve. The AV valve on the right side of the heart is known as the right atrioventricular (AV) valve or the tricuspid valve.
Valves separating atria and ventricles are together called what?
The valves separating the atria and ventricles are collectively referred to as atrioventricular valves. These include the tricuspid valve on the right side of the heart and the mitral valve on the left side.
What two atrioventricular valves control the flow of the blood?
The mitral or bicuspid valve and the tricuspid valve are the atrioventricular valves that control the flow of blood from the atria to the ventricles. The bicuspid is on the left side of the heart, and the tricuspid on the right.
What are the 'doors' that blood flowing backwards in the atria called?
Atrioventricular valves. The one on the right side of the heart is the tricuspid and the one on the left side of the heart is the bicuspid or mitral valve.
What are the valves found between the lower and upper chambers of the rights and left side of the heart?
On the right sie of the heart, there is a right atrium and right ventricle that are separated by the tricuspid valve or Atrioventricular valve. The left atrium and left ventricle are separated by the bicuspid or mitral valve.

What valve opens when the atrioventricular valve closes?
I would have to say; depending if it's the left or right side. Left side it would be the aortic valve and the right side would be the pulmonary valve.
The right AV valve allows blood to move where?
The right atrioventricular valve, also known as the tricuspid valve, allows blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle. The similar valve on the left side of the heart is the bicuspid or mitral valve.
A valve in the heart that guards the opening between the left atrium and the left ventricle that prevents the blood in the ventricle from returning to the atrium?
The Mitral valve.
