The mitral valve. (The tricuspid valve has three leaflets.)
The human heart has both Tricuspid and a Bicuspid Valve. The Bicuspid Valve is more commonly know as the Aortic Valve. All that bicuspid means is that there are only 2 leaflets in the valve instead of the normal three leaflets that would be found in the tricuspid valve or the mitral valve.
The left Mitral atrioventricular valve is bicuspid (two flaps).
The atrioventricular vales separate the atria from the ventricles. The left AV valve is also known as the mitral valve, and the right is the tricuspid valve.
They connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. also i like bananas :)
Neither, theoretically the two ventricles contract simultaneously. The coronary arteries begin as two holes just above the leaflets of the aortic valve. During systole the leaflets block the coronary arteries and prevent blood flow to them. It is during diastole (of both ventricles) that blood returns to the coronary vasculature.
The mitral valve has only two primary leaflets. In contrast, the tricuspid valve has three.

The mitral valve is more complex than the tricuspid valve. The mitral valve has two leaflets, while the tricuspid valve has three leaflets. Additionally, the mitral valve is located on the left side of the heart and is subjected to higher pressures and forces compared to the tricuspid valve on the right side.
It has 2 leaflets.

from the name itself, the bicuspid valve contains two cusps or flaps and the tricuspid valve contains three cusps or flaps. they both prevent the blood from flowing back into the atria........
The mitral valve does not have cups; instead, it consists of two leaflets, commonly referred to as cusps. These cusps are named the anterior and posterior leaflets and function to regulate blood flow between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart. The design of the mitral valve allows it to open and close effectively, preventing backflow during the cardiac cycle.
The normal semilunar valve, such as the aortic and pulmonary valves, has three leaflets. This tricuspid arrangement helps these valves to effectively open and close to regulate blood flow.
The right atrioventricular valve is also called the tricuspid valve. It gets this name because it has three leaflets.
The right atrioventricular valve (or right AV valve), also called the tricuspid valve, (for its three leafletlobes) controls the flow of blood between the right atrium and right ventricle. (The opening itself is the "right atrioventricular canal.") It prevents dexoygenated blood from regurgitating back into the right atrium. The vale is called "tricuspid" because of its three leaflets; it must be noted however, that the tricuspid valve can contain between two and four leaflets.
