A
left atrium
B
right ventricle
C
left ventricle
D
right atrium
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The left ventricle has the thickest wall out of all the chambers. The left ventricle is responsible for pumping the blood towards the tissues of the heart. This is why more muscles contracting inside the left ventricle helps produce a higher force to move the blood towards the system.

Detailed explanation-2: -The left ventricle pumps blood to all parts of the body, while the right ventricle only pumps blood to the lungs. Therefore, the wall of the left ventricle is thicker than the right ventricle.

Detailed explanation-3: -Why is the left ventricular wall of the heart thicker than the right ventricular wall? To accommodate a greater volume of blood. To expand the thoracic cage during diastole. To pump blood with greater pressure.
