Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The left ventricle pumps the blood to the aorta which will distribute the oxygenated blood to all parts of the body.

Detailed explanation-2: -The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle. The left ventricle pumps the oxygen-rich blood to the body.

Detailed explanation-3: -The left ventricle is the thickest of the heart’s chambers and is responsible for pumping oxygenated blood to tissues all over the body. By contrast, the right ventricle solely pumps blood to the lungs.

Detailed explanation-4: -The lower left heart chamber is called the left ventricle. The left ventricle is the heart’s main pumping chamber. During left ventricular hypertrophy, the thickened heart wall can become stiff. Blood pressure in the heart increases. The changes make it harder for the heart to effectively pump blood.

Detailed explanation-5: -Left ventricle (VEN-trih-kul): one of the four chambers of the heart. The left ventricle pumps blood full of oxygen out to the body.
