Tricuspid valve : Present between right atrium and ventricle.  It is called
tricuspid valve because it consists of three irregularly shaped flaps(3
parts).
 How heart operates
Tricuspid and bicuspid valves are known as
atriovenicular valves as they are valves
between atrium and ventricles. Semilunar
valves are present in aorta and pulmonary
artery. Diastole Is when all the muscles of the
heart relax and blood flows into the atriums.
During atrial systole The atriums muscles
contract and blood is forced into the
ventricles. The ventricles contract in
ventricular systole and blood is forced out of
the heart trough the arteries
