what is the other name for the right atrioventricular valve?
318147
Valves of the Heart The right atrioventricular valve is the tricuspid valve. The left atrioventricular valve is the bicuspid, or mitral, valve. The valve between the right ventricle and pulmonary trunk is the pulmonary semilunar valve. The valve between the left ventricle and the aorta is the aortic semilunar valve.

The two atrioventricular (AV) valves, the mitral valve (bicuspid valve) and the tricuspid valve, which are between the upper chambers (atria) and the lower chambers (ventricles). The two semilunar (SL) valves, the aortic valve and the pulmonary valve, which are in the arteries leaving the heart.

There are two auricles in the heart. Each one is attached to the anterior surface of the outer-walls of the atria (i.e.left and right atria). They look like wrinkled pouch like structures. Their purpose is to increase the capacity of the atrium and also increase the volume of blood that is able to contain.

the tricuspid valve, located between the right atrium and the right ventricle; the pulmonary (pulmonic) valve, between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery; the mitral valve, between the left atrium and left ventricle; and. the aortic valve, between the left ventricle and the aorta.

Heart Chambers, Valves, Vessels, Wall and Conduction System. The heart is made up of four chambers. The upper two chambers are called atria (singular: atrium) and the lower two are known as ventricles (singular: ventricle). Muscular walls, called septa or septum, divide the heart into two sides.

The mitral valve is also called the bicuspid valve because it contains two leaflets or cusps. ... The tricuspid valve has three leaflets or cusps and is on the right side of the heart. It is between the right atrium and the right ventricle, and stops the backflow of blood between the two.

A wall of muscle called the septum separates the left and right atria and the left and right ventricles.

['The right atrium receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and pumps it to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve.', 'The right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood to the lungs through the pulmonary valve.']

In humans the atria are the two upper chambers of the heart. Each is roughly cube-shaped except for an ear-shaped projection called an auricle. (The term auricle has also been applied, incorrectly, to the entire atrium.)
1401869
The heart contracts in two stages. In the first stage the Right and Left Atria contract at the same time, pumping blood to the Right and Left Ventricles. Then the Ventricles contract together (called systole) to propel blood out of the heart.

Semilunar Valves They close at the beginning of ventricular relaxation (diastole), producing the second heart sounds. There are two semilunar valves: Pulmonary valve – located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary trunk (pulmonary orifice).

Mitral valve. The mitral valve, also known as the bicuspid valve, is a valve in the heart that lies between the left atrium (LA) and the left ventricle (LV).

Humans have two atria. The atrium was formerly called the "auricle"; that term is still used to describe this chamber in some other animals, such as the Mollusca.
228336
Blood enters the heart through two large veins, the inferior and superior vena cava, emptying oxygen-poor blood from the body into the right atrium. As the atrium contracts, blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve.
111211
The atrioventricular valves are located between the atria and the ventricles. They close during the start of ventricular contraction (systole), producing the first heart sound. There are two AV valves: Tricuspid valve – located between the right atrium and the right ventricle (right atrioventricular orifice).

The heart has 4 valves: The mitral valve and tricuspid valve, which control blood flow from the atria to the ventricles. The aortic valve and pulmonary valve, which control blood flow out of the ventricles.
