Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Blood flows from your right atrium into your right ventricle through the open tricuspid valve. When the ventricles are full, the tricuspid valve shuts. This prevents blood from flowing backward into the atria while the ventricles contract (squeeze)

There are mechanisms that only allow blood to flow one way.
