the heart is made up of two parts one is oxygenated (left side) and the other is deoxygenated (right side) but what really separates the two parts of the heart is the septum. another function for the septum is to prevent oxygenated and deoxygenated blood for being mixed together , if a person has a problem in his septum it could cause different troubles like the heart will be IIt would be less efficient...just like in amphibian hearts.This does happen in some cases with newborns with congenital heart defects. They fall under the catch-all category of "Blue Baby Syndrome" which also includes some other diseases.
Generally, it occurs when there's a ventricular septal defect (a hole between the two ventricles) that causes the poorly oxygenated and well oxygenated blood to mix. It results in blood circulating in the arteries to be less oxygenated than it should. It really depends on how poorly oxygenated the blood is overall, but it can result in life threating conditions because of an inability to provide enough oxygen to all the tissues of the body.
but mainly what seprates the two parts of the heart is the septum
