What are four functions of the heart?
There are 4 chambers of the heart and here are what they do. The Right atria is where blood comes into this part from the vena cava and is pumped to the right ventricle The Right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs Left atria is where the blood returns to the heart through the left atria Left ventricle is where the blood is pumped from the aorta to the rest of the body
What system has the atria?
The atria are a part of your heart which is in the circulatory system
What are the top two chambers of the heart called?
The Atria and Atrium
Identify and describe the five paths of blood circulation?
Blood circulation is one of the most important functions that the human body does. The five paths of circulation are the right atria into the pulmonary artery to the lungs, then the pulmonary veins, back to the left ventricle and atria and the aorta.

Are auricle extensions of the atria or the ventricle?

How would you say the structural difference reflects the relative functions of the two heart chambers?
Assuming you mean the atria and ventricles by "the two heart chambers", the fact that in all species the atria are smaller than the ventricles reflects the fact that the atria receive blood from either the body or the lungs and then pump it into the larger and much stronger ventricles. One-way valves between the atria and ventricles prevent backflow of blood from the ventricles to the atria. The ventricles then pump the blood received from the atria to either the oxygenating organ (i.e. gills or lungs) or the body. The much thicker walls of the ventricles reflect the fact that much greater force is needed to pump the blood throughout the body or to the lungs than is needed to pump the blood from the atria to the ventricles.
