What is the difference between bicuspid valve and tricuspid valve?

Biology

Alexxandr [17]2 years ago

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.

4. Which of the following statements best describes how the traits of an organism are determined
butalik [34]

Answer Choices:

DNA provides the energy needed for an organism to grow and function

DNA is copied into mRNA, which controls cellular functions

DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function

DNA unzips and each strand codes for a different amino acid

Answer:

DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function

Explanation:

DNA provides the energy needed for an organism to grow and function  - this is false. DNA does not provide energy. A molecule called ATP, mostly produced by cellular respiration, provides energy for the cells to grow and function.

DNA is copied into mRNA, which controls cellular functions  - this is false. While it is true that DNA is copied into mRNA, mRNA does not directly control cellular functions. Instead, mRNA is translated into proteins.

DNA codes for proteins, which allow an organism to grow and function  - <u>this is true, as indicated above, DNA is transcribed to mRNA which is translated into proteins. Proteins carry out essentially all the functions in the cell</u>

DNA unzips and each strand codes for a different amino acid - this is false, DNA is transcribed into mRNA. Each mRNA codon (three bases) codes for a different amino acid
