Muscular walls
to provide a strong heartbeat
The left ventricle wall is
thicker
than the right ventricle wall because it has to
pump blood
all around the body
It has
4
chambers that seperate the
oxygenated
blood from the
deoxygenated
blood
Valves prevent
backflow
of blood when the heart
contracts.
Coronary arteries
cover the heart to provide its own
oxygenated
blood supply
