If you mean the heart, the atria are separated from each other by the atrial septum. If you mean the atria from the ventricles, the right is separated by an AV valve called the tricuspid. The left by a an AV valve called the bicuspid or mitral valve.

The upper chambers of the heart are separated by the?
The interatrial septum separates the left atrium from the right atrium (the atria are the upper chambers of the heart).
What separates the atria?
The interatrial septum separates the right and left atria.(upper chambers)
What is the partition between the left and right side of the heart called?
They are the two lower chambers if the heart, responsible for pumping blood out to the body.
What separates the upper and lower chamber?
The AV valves separate the upper and lower chambers of the heart. The bicuspid valve is on the left, and the tricuspid on the right.
What Heart valves are found between the upper and lower chambers of the heart compare them also.?
Upper chambers of heart are the left and right atrium Lower are the left and right ventrical atrioventricular valves separate the two. Bicuspid (mitrial) valve separates the left atrium/ventrical and the tricuspid separates the right atrium/ventrical.
What is the THE BIRTH DEFECT OF A hole in the heart between the upper chambers?
The upper chambers of the heart are called atria, and the wall that separates them is called the atrial septum. Thus a defect in that wall is called an atrial septal defect. They are not uncommon, and can run in families and be associated with genetic abnormalities such as Down syndrome.
How do the walls of the upper chambers compar to the walls of the lower Chambers?
The walls of the upper chambers are thinner than those of the lower chambers. The upper chambers don't need to generate as much pumping force as the ventricles.
What valve separates the upper and lower chamber of the heart?
There are 4 heart chambers. The two upper chambers are called atria while the two lower chambers are called ventricles. The valve separating the atria from the ventricles is called the atrioventricular valve. Then you would have your right and left atrioventricular valves.
What is the thin wall that separates the chambers on nthe right from the chambers on the left side of the heart?
Septum
Either of the two upper chambers of the heart?
the upper chambers of the heart are called the right and left atrium and they are the receiving chambers of the heart
What is the upper chambers called in the hart?
The upper chambers in the heart are called atria (singular: atrium).
What are soft-walled upper chambers of the heart?
The upper chambers of the heart are called the atria (singular: atrium).
