Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;The chordae tendineae are a group of tough, tendinous strands in the heart.The chordae tendineae play a vital role in holding the atrioventricular valves in place while the heart is pumping blood. The chordae tendineae connect the papillary muscles to the tricuspid valve and the mitral valve in the heart. Papillary muscles are located in the ventricles of the heart. They attach to the cusps of the atrioventricular valves via the chordae tendineae and contract to prevent inversion or prolapse of these valves.
