The mitral valve is also called the bicuspid valve because it contains two leaflets or cusps. ... The tricuspid valve has three leaflets or cusps and is on the right side of the heart. It is between the right atrium and the right ventricle, and stops the backflow of blood between the two.

They are both valves. The difference comes in their location and structure.

Bicuspid/Mitral valve is found between the left ventricle and atrium and has 2 flaps, whereas the tricuspid valve has 3 flaps and is found between the right atrium and the right ventricle.

Inessa05 [86]
The correct answer is antigens and epitope.
An antigen is a substance which triggers an immune response in an organism. This can be either a foreign substance, such as a pathogen, or a specific part of the host organism (in this case this is an autoimmune response). The presence of an antigen activates a specific part of the immune system, called antibody. Each antigen has a specific antibody, which is tailored by the immune system accordingly. More specifically, the antibody has a specific structure, called paratope, which is complementary and binds like a key to a specific structure of the antigen, called epitope.
