valves
B
ventricles
C
atria
D
septum
Explanation: 

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 right and left ventricles-pump blood out of your heart.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lower left heart chamber is called the left ventricle. The left ventricle is the heart’s main pumping chamber. During left ventricular hypertrophy, the thickened heart wall can become stiff. Blood pressure in the heart increases.

Detailed explanation-3: -The ventricles are the two lower chambers of the heart, one on the right and one on the left. The ventricles receive blood from the heart’s upper chambers (atria) and pump it to the rest of the body. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs, and the left ventricle pumps blood to the rest of the body.
