The valves are attached to the heart wall by tendons as this allows the closure of the vavles to be controlled it also makes sure the the valve is completely closed to prevent backflow, which is potentially fatal.
OK i can only assume the question is reffering to the tendinae chordinae which connect the atrioventricular valves to the pappilary muscles projecting from the heart wall? The functions of these structures is to prevent the massive pressure difference, between the vetrivles and actria during systole, from pushing the the valve inside out and thus preventing backflow. NB the pappilary muscles and chordea tendinae are not involved in clossing or openinghte valves they just stop inversion.
They connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. also i like bananas :)
The valve
The valve between the heart and the aorta is the aortic valve, and the valve between the heart and the pulmonary artery is the pulmonic valve.
Valves control the flow of blood. Without them blood could flow backwards.--------------------------Yes, true. Valve would maintain one way traffic for blood right from the heart and to outside parts of the body and form outside to the heart.
There are four valves in the heart--the aortic valve, pulmonary valve, mitral valve, and tricuspid valve--each at the exit of one of the heart's four chambers.
A valvectomy is a surgery that removes a valve from the body, typically a heart valve. If the heart is diseased, or not functioning properly, the valve can be removed to help restore better function.

The aortic valve controls the flow of blood from the heart's left ventricle to the aorta, which is the body's main artery. It opens to allow blood to be pumped out of the heart and closes to prevent blood from leaking back into the heart.
Yes. tendon connects bone to muscles.
The bicuspid valve allows blood to pass from the heart to the aorta but then keeps it from flowing back into the heart.
They connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. also i like bananas :)
AV VALVE ARISE FROM FIBRUOS SKELETAL OF THE HEART TO BE END IN A TENDON THAT ATTACHED TO PAPILARY MUSCLE ( BEING ATTACHED BY BOTH SIDES )PRESENT IN HEART BUT SEMILUNAR VALVE ARISE FROM FOLDED IN ENDOTHELIUM NEAR THE ROOT OF AORTA AND HAS A FREELY END (BEING ATTACHED AT ONE SIDE AT ITS ORIGIN )PRESENT IN AORTA AND PULMONARU TRUNK.
to protect the tendon from wear and tear in physical movement, like when you exercise.
The bicuspid valve, also known as the mitral valve, is located between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart. Its function is to prevent the backflow of blood from the left ventricle into the left atrium during the contraction of the heart. This ensures proper blood flow through the heart and out to the rest of the body.
muscle
The medical term for inflammation of the valve on the left side of the heart is "mitral valve endocarditis." This condition can lead to damage of the valve and affect the heart's ability to function properly. Treatment often involves antibiotics and, in severe cases, surgery to repair or replace the valve.
The goal of the procedure is to improve valve function and blood flow by enlarging the valve opening. It is sometimes used to avoid or delay open heart surgery and valve replacement.
