Which of the Following is Least Related to the Mitral

Question

Which of the following is least related to the mitral valve?
A) Left heart
B) Bicuspid
C) Semilunar
D) Chordae tendineae

Accepted Answer

The mitral valve is situated in the left atrioventricular (AV) junction of the heart, between the left atrium and left ventricle. It is also known as the bicuspid valve due to its two leaflets. The chordae tendineae are fibrous cords that attach to the valve leaflets and help to prevent them from prolapsing into the left atrium during ventricular contraction. The semilunar valves, on the other hand, are located in the aortic and pulmonary outflows of the heart and prevent blood from flowing back into the ventricles during diastole. While the mitral valve is part of the left heart, it is more specifically related to the left AV junction and is not directly linked to the semilunar valves.
