It prevents back flow of blood and ensures that blood flows in 1 direction only.

Explanation:

Two important valves in the human heart include the tricuspid valve allowing blood to flow from the right atrium to the right ventricle, and then the bicuspid valve allowing blood to flow from the left atrium to the left ventricle.
