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. The heart valves, which keep blood flowing in the right direction, are gates at the chamber openings.

Detailed explanation-2: -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 right and left ventricles-pump blood out of your heart.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heart Chambers. Your heart chambers are four hollow spaces within your heart. Your upper chambers are called your right atrium and left atrium. Your lower chambers are called your right ventricle and left ventricle. Your chambers work together to manage your heartbeat.

Detailed explanation-4: -The heart has four chambers. The upper two chambers are the atria, and the lower two are the ventricles (Figure A). The chambers are separated by a wall of tissue called the septum. Blood is pumped through the chambers, aided by four heart valves. The valves open and close to let the blood flow in only one direction.

Detailed explanation-5: -There are four chambers: the left atrium and right atrium (upper chambers), and the left ventricle and right ventricle (lower chambers). The right side of your heart collects blood on its return from the rest of your body. The blood entering the right side of your heart is low in oxygen.
