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 two upper chambers of your heart are called atrium, and the two lower chambers are called ventricles. Blood flows from the body and lungs to the atria and from the atria to the ventricles. The ventricles pump blood out of the heart to the lungs and other parts of the body.
Detailed explanation-3: -The heart has four chambers: two atria and two ventricles. The right atrium receives oxygen-poor blood from the body and pumps it to the right ventricle. The right ventricle pumps the oxygen-poor blood to the lungs. The left atrium receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it to the left ventricle.
Detailed explanation-4: -Both oxygen and carbon-dioxide are transported by the blood, the heart has different chambers to prevent the oxygen-rich blood from mixing with the blood containing carbon-dioxide. Also, such separation allows a highly efficient supply of oxygen to the body.
