Answer to Problem 1RQCS

“The right atrioventricular (AV) valve is also referred to as the tricupsid valve”.

Explanation of Solution

The heart is divided into four chambers (two atria on the top and two ventricles on the bottom) and is separated by the valves, which consists of two semilunar (SL) valves between the ventricles and two atrioventricular (AV) valves between the atria. The function of these valves is to allow blood flow in only one direction and prevent the backflow. The AV valve between the ventricle and right atrium has three flaps, and it is called the tricupsid valve.
