The valves between the right atrium and right ventricle is called:
- A
bicuspid valve
- B
tricuspid valve
- C
pulmonary valve
- D
semi lunar valve-
The valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle is the tricuspid valve.
The valve between the left atrium and the left ventricle is the bicuspid valve, also known as the mitral valve.
The valve between the right atrium and the right ventricle is the tricuspid valve. Hence, option B is correct.
The pulmonary valve is a semilunar valve and is between the right ventricle and the artery that pulmonary artery which supplies deoxygenated blood to the lungs.
The semilunar valves are attached at the point at which the pulmonary artery and the aorta leave the ventricles and prevent the backflow of blood.
