ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -A typical heart has two upper and two lower chambers. The upper chambers, the right and left atria, receive incoming blood. The lower chambers, the more muscular right and left ventricles, pump blood out of the heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -The four chambers of the heart On each side of the wall, there is a small collecting chamber called an ‘atrium’, which leads into a large pumping chamber called a ‘ventricle’. There are four chambers: the left atrium and right atrium (upper chambers), and the left ventricle and right ventricle (lower chambers).

Detailed explanation-3: -The four heart chambers and four valves work together to separate the oxygen-rich blood from the oxygen-poor blood. When healthy, the structure of your chambers and valves allows blood to flow in the right direction. The normal cycle of blood flow moves like this: body-heart-lungs-heart-body.

Detailed explanation-4: -The heart is made up of four chambers. The upper two chambers are called atria (singular: atrium) and the lower two are known as ventricles (singular: ventricle). Muscular walls, called septa or septum, divide the heart into two sides.

Detailed explanation-5: -Pericardium – a thin, outer lining that protects and surrounds your heart. Myocardium – a thick, muscular middle layer that contracts and relaxes to pump blood around of your heart. Endocardium – a thin, inner layer that makes up the lining of the four chambers and the valves in your heart.
