Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The left ventricle is one of four chambers of the heart. It is located in the bottom left portion of the heart below the left atrium, separated by the mitral valve.

Detailed explanation-2: -The top chambers of the heart are called the left atrium and right atrium. The bottom chambers of the heart are the left ventricle and right ventricle, which have thicker walls. The right atrium receives blood from the veins that has already circulated through the body and pumps it over to the right ventricle.

Detailed explanation-3: -The left ventricle is an integral part of the cardiovascular system. Left ventricular contraction forces oxygenated blood through the aortic valve to be distributed to the entire body. With such an important role, decreased function caused by injury or maladaptive change can induce symptoms of the disease.
