The flap consists of 2 sails, the front and the rear sail. These are attached by tendon threads ([[Chordae tendineae]]) to the two [[papillary muscles]] in the chamber. The contraction of the papillary muscles tensions the sails in the [[systole, systolic|systole]], preventing the flaps from penetrating the atria.
