Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which ventricle has the thickest walls?
A
Left Atrium
B
Right Atrium
C
Left Ventricle
D
Right Ventricle
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 myocardium is thickest in the left ventricle, as this chamber must create substantial pressure to pump blood into the aorta and throughout systemic circulation.

Detailed explanation-3: -Ventricles have thicker walls than auricles because they have to pump blood to different organs and the pressure with which the blood flows through them is more than the auricles. Therefore, the walls are thicker in ventricles than in auricles.
