Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The left and the right side of the heart is separated by a wall called septum. The partition between the chambers helps to avoid the mixing up of blood rich in oxygen with blood rich in carbon dioxide. Q. Human heart has four chambers called as auricles and ventricles.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your heart has 4 chambers. The upper chambers are called the left and right atria and the lower chambers are called the left and right ventricles. A wall of muscle called the septum separates the left and right atria and the left and right ventricles. These are referred to as the atrial and ventricular septum.

Detailed explanation-3: -The interventricular septum (IVS) accommodates the ventricular portion of the conduction system and contributes to the mechanical function of both ventricles.

Detailed explanation-4: -The interatrial septum is a thin wall of tissue that separates the right and left atria of the heart. In adult life, its main function is to separate the two atrial chambers so that there is no shunting of blood between them.
