LEFT ATRIUM
The left atrium is the upper left chamber of the heart. It opens into the left ventricle through the mitral valve. It receives oxygenated blood from the lungs through the pulmonary vein . The deoxygenated blood from right ventricle reaches the lungs through the pulmonary artery.
The left atrium is positioned slightly above and behind the right atrium. Although it is smaller in terms of the amount of blood it can hold, the left atrium has a thicker myocardial wall when compared to the right atrium.
What Are the Functions of the Left & Right Atria?
The right atrium is one of the two atria of the heart, which function as receiving chambers for blood entering the heart . It is located to the right of the left atrium and superior to the much larger and more muscular right ventricle. Between the right atrium and right ventricle is a one-way valve known as the tricuspid valve.
