What are threads that attach the valve flaps to the ventricle walls called?
The threads that attach the valve flaps to the ventricle walls are called chordae tendineae. These fibrous cords help to prevent the valve flaps from prolapsing or collapsing back into the atria during the contraction of the ventricles.
What tissue makes up the chordae tendinae?
The chordae tendinae are composed of dense connective tissue called collagen. This collagen tissue provides strength and stability to the chordae tendinae, which are fibrous cords that connect the valves of the heart to the papillary muscles in the ventricles.

What is the function of the chordae tendineae and papillary muscles of the bicuspid and tricuspid valves?
The tendinous cords are located in the ventricles. The function of the tendinous cords that are attached to the bicuspid and tricuspid valves is to connect the atrio-ventricular valves to the papillary muscles.

The voice box containing the vocal cords in the neck is called the larynx.
What is the function of the tendinous cords?
The tendinious cord is located in the ventricles,ie., it connects the papillary muscle at one end and atrio-ventricular valves(mitral or bicuspid valve and tricuspid valve).The function is just transmitting the force from the pappilary muscles to the atrio-ventricular valves and make the valve open during the atrial contraction or systole, and allow the blood to flow into the ventricles.
What is the sound made by your vocal chords called?
The sound made by vocal cords is called the voice or vocalization. It is produced when air passes through the vocal cords in the larynx, causing them to vibrate and create sound.
