The mitral valve, also known as the bicuspid valve, is located between the left atrium and left ventricle of the heart. It allows blood to flow from the left atrium into the left ventricle and prevents backflow during contraction of the ventricle. The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and right ventricle, while the pulmonic valve is located between the right ventricle and pulmonary artery, and the aortic valve is located between the left ventricle and aorta.
