Detailed explanation-1: -The left ventricle pumps blood to all parts of the body, while the right ventricle only pumps blood to the lungs. Therefore, the wall of the left ventricle is thicker than the right ventricle.
Detailed explanation-2: -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-3: -The ventricles of the heart have thicker muscular walls than the atria. This is because blood is pumped out of the heart at greater pressure from these chambers compared to the atria.
Detailed explanation-4: -Explain why in the heart the wall of the left ventricle is thicker than the wall of the right ventricle? This is because the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood round the entire body while the right ventricle only pumps blood to the lungs which is a much shorter distance.
