1)Tricuspid valve separates the right atrium from the right ventricle
2) Pulmonary (semilunar) valve separates the right ventricle from the pulmonary trunk leading to the pulmonary arteries
3) Bicuspid (Mitral) valve separates the left atrium from the left ventricle
4) Aortic valve separates the left ventricle from the aorta
the chambers are separated by a wall of tissue called the septum
the septum separates the left and right side of the heart. And in each side, the atrial valves, separate the ventricle and atrium of the respective side.

What valve separates the upper and lower chamber of the heart?
There are 4 heart chambers. The two upper chambers are called atria while the two lower chambers are called ventricles. The valve separating the atria from the ventricles is called the atrioventricular valve. Then you would have your right and left atrioventricular valves.
What is the purpose of the valves which connect the heart chambers?
Valves are present in heart are used to prevent backflow of blood in heart due to reduce in pressure in atrium.
What is an endocardiogram?
This is a procedure that checks the status of the heart chambers and valves. Sound waves are used to produce images of the heart and check for any problem in heart muscles or valves. This exam is usually suggested if a doctor believes that the patients blood is being pumped abnormally.
What are the heart's valves?
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.
What act as doors between the chambers of your heart?
The heart does not have doors, but it does have valves that could be thought of as doors. They consist of the semilunar valves (the pulmonary semilunar valve and the aortic semilunar valve). The other two are the atrioventricularvalves (tricuspid and bicuspid valves).
Does valves carry the blood to the heart?
No, veins carry blood to the heart. Valves are in your heart, and they separate certain chambers, like the right atrium and right ventricle.
What separates the upper and lower chamber?
The AV valves separate the upper and lower chambers of the heart. The bicuspid valve is on the left, and the tricuspid on the right.
How many chambers are in a person's heart?
4 valves
What Heart valves are found between the upper and lower chambers of the heart compare them also.?
Upper chambers of heart are the left and right atrium Lower are the left and right ventrical atrioventricular valves separate the two. Bicuspid (mitrial) valve separates the left atrium/ventrical and the tricuspid separates the right atrium/ventrical.
What valve separates the upper and lower chamber of the heart?
There are 4 heart chambers. The two upper chambers are called atria while the two lower chambers are called ventricles. The valve separating the atria from the ventricles is called the atrioventricular valve. Then you would have your right and left atrioventricular valves.
How is a sheep heart similar to our heart?
It has a similar shape, structure, chambers and valves.
Why is heart catheterization used to diagnose pericarditis?
To view the heart's chambers and valves.
What is the function of the valves which connect the two heart chambers?
Valves prevent the backflow of blood.
What is the purpose of the valves which connect the heart chambers?
Valves are present in heart are used to prevent backflow of blood in heart due to reduce in pressure in atrium.
What is the structure for the heart?
Four hollow chambers surrounded by muscle. Two of the chambers have inlet and outlet valves.
What separates the chambers and keeps the blood traveling in one direction?
The valves in the veins & arteries stop the blood flowing back along with the heart pumping & thus pushing the blood around the body. The inter-atrial & interventrical septum's separate the for chambers of the heart.
The four chambers in the heart are conected by flaps of tissue called?
Valves
