In this deck, we'll explore the human heart. We'll start with its basic structure. The heart is a muscular pump with four chambers. The two upper chambers are called atria, and the two lower, more muscular chambers are called ventricles.
Quiz#2
What are the two upper chambers of the heart called?
the left atrium and the right atrium
Quiz#3
What are the two lower chambers of the heart called?
the left ventricle and the right ventricle
Lesson#4
The right and left sides of the heart are separated by a thick muscular wall called the septum. Its job is crucial: it prevents the mixing of oxygenated blood on the left side with the deoxygenated blood on the right side.
Quiz#5
What is the name of the muscular wall that separates the right and left sides of the heart?
the septum
Quiz#6
What is the main function of the septum in the heart?
to separate oxygenated and deoxygenated blood
