A Correct answer
Explanation

The tricuspid valve or right atrioventricular valve is present on the right dorsal side of the mammalian heart in between the right atrium and the right ventricle. The function of the valve is to ensure that blood flows from the right atrium to the right ventricle by closing an prevented back flow during ventricle systole.
