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 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 is considered upper heart valves?
The upper heart valves are called atriums, and the lower heart valves are called ventricles.
What is the meaning of mitral valve stenois?
Mitral valve stenosis refers to a condition in the heart in which one of the valve openings has become narrow and restricts the flow of blood from the upper left chamber (left atrium) to the lower left chamber (left ventricle).
How many compartments does the heart have?
The heart is divided into 4 chambers: 2 on the right hand side and 2 on the left. Each upper chamber is known as an atrium and each lower chamber as a ventricle. The 4 compartments are known as: the right atrium; the right ventricle; the left atrium and the left ventricle.
Heart disease need advic i have mitro heart disease and also an irregular heartbeat?
The question is not clear. You may have mitral valve prolapse, mitral stenosis or mitral regurgitation. Mitral valve prolapse is a heart problem in which the valve that separates the upper and lower chambers of the left side of the heart does not close properly. Mitral stenosis is a heart valve disorder that involves the mitral valve. This valve separates the upper and lower chambers on the left side of the heart. Stenosis refers to a condition in which the valve does not open fully, restricting blood flow. Acute mitral regurgitation is a disorder in which the heart's mitral valve suddenly does not close properly, causing blood to flow backward (leak) into the upper heart chamber when the left lower heart chamber contracts. In open surgery, the surgeon makes a large incision (cut) in your breastbone to reach the heart. http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000180.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_prolapse http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000175.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_stenosis http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000177.htm http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000176.htm http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitral_regurgitation http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/007411.htm http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/007412.htm
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.
Which organ has upper chamber and lower chamber?
The heart has upper and lower chambers.
What is the lower chamber in a frog's heart?
The lower chamber is the ventricle, and there are 2 upper chambers (they are known as atria).
What structure separates both sides of the heart?
"The right side of the heart is completely separate from the left side by a wall of tissue called septum. Each side has two compartments, or chambers and upper chamber and lower chamber." ~Human Biology and Health; Science Explorer; Chapter 3, Sec. 1
What are the vessels on the right side of the heart?
The right atrium (upper chamber) and the right ventricle (lower chamber)
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 is the valve between the left upper and lower chambers of the heart?
The Mitral Valve is located between the Left Atrium ( Left upper chamber) and the Left Ventricle (Left lower chamber)
What is located between the the left upper and lower chambers of the heart?
The Mitral Valve is located between the Left Atrium ( Left upper chamber) and the Left Ventricle (Left lower chamber)
What the two chamber?
upper chamber and the lower chamber upper chamber consist the atrium while the lower chamber consist the ventricles
What is the medical term for located between the left upper and lower chambers of the heart called?
The Mitral Valve is located between the Left Atrium ( Left upper chamber) and the Left Ventricle (Left lower chamber)
On each side of the heart a value allows blood to travel from the upper chamber to the lower chamber why is this important?
It is important because if the blood stayed in the upper chamber forever there can become a major problem with your body
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.
