How does the tricuspid valve prevent backflow of blood?
Asked by Topperlearning User | 04 Jun, 2014, 01:23: PM
Expert Answer
Tricuspid valve is present between the right atrium and right ventricle. Tricuspid valve has three muscular flaps. At the time of ventricular systole, the chordate tendinae hold the apices of the flaps in position which prevent the overturning of valves into the atria. The only course left for the ventricular blood is to enter the pulmonary arteries. This way the tricuspid valve prevents the backflow of the blood.
