inner lining endothelium of blood vessels and covers heart valves. 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. The left ventricle is the largest and strongest chamber in your heart. The left ventricle’s chamber walls are only about a half-inch

And two ventricles that pump blood into the body’s arteries. There is a thin wall between the atria’s that is called the interatrial septum. There is a wall between the ventricles called interventricular septum. Right Atrium- This is the superior right chamber. It receives deoxygenated blood from the main veins‚ the superior and inferior vena cava

are dead‚ not that you would be able to hear me or care what I have to say. The four chambers consist of the right and left atrium and right and left atrium. Each of the chambers has valves. The tricuspid valve‚ mitral valve‚ pulmonary valve‚ and the aortic valve are their names. Their purpose is to allow blood to move forwards through the heart and to make sure that it doesn’t flow backwards into the previous chamber. A normal resting heart rate for adults range from 60 to 100 beats a minute. (2)
