They pump blood from the heart into the lungs or all the other tissues of the body.
The atriums squeeze to push blood to the ventricles, and the ventricles push the blood to separate parts the body.
They have thin walls and they collect blood before it enters the ventricles.
in reptiles with ventricles nt fully devided..cavum venosum is the region of ventricles that directs oxygenated blood from left ventricle to systematic arches..
You could say that, but you could say it functions as two pumps or one. As four pumps the (1)left and (2)right atrium pump blood into the left and right ventricles. Then the Left and Right ventricles pump blood into the (3)lungs and (4)body respectively. Looking at the heart as two pumps, the atriums (L and R) pump into the ventricles. As one pump, the heart circulates the blood in the body.
The ventricles of the cerebrum contain cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This fluid serves several critical functions, including cushioning the brain, providing buoyancy, and facilitating the removal of waste products. Additionally, CSF helps maintain a stable environment for the neurons and supports metabolic functions.
Atria is the receiving chamber and it is located at the top while ventricles are the one responsible for pumping blood out of the heart either to oxygenate the blood or to deliver it into our systems and it is located at the bottom part of the heart
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.
The left and right ventricles of the heart receive the blood from the left and right atria respectively. The ventricles then send blood into the arteries. So technically they send and receive, but I guess their main functions is to send blood to the body and lungs.
