Study Guide
, Tricuspid Valve - Atrioventricular valve located between the right atrium and ventricle;
opens during diastole to allow blood flow from the right atrium to right ventricle.
Mitral Valve - Atrioventricular valve located between the left atrium and ventricle; opens
during diastole to allow blood flow from the left atrium to left ventricle.
Aortic Valve - Semilunar valve located between the left ventricle and the aorta; opens
during systole to allow blood to flow into the aorta.
Pulmonic Valve - Semilunar valve located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary
artery; opens during systole to allow blood to flow into the pulmonary artery.
S1 - The sound produced by the closure of the mitral and tricuspid valves during
systole.
S2 - The sound produced by the closure of the aortic and pulmonic valves during
diastole.
