Your heart is not on the center line of your body for several reasons. Your left ventricle has to pump a lot stronger than the right ventricle. Your left ventricle has to pump blood all over your body. Your right one just pumps blood to your lungs which are right there. The right side is smaller than your left side. Since the right side of your heart is smaller than the left side of your heart, that makes more room on the right side of your chest. Since your body will have more room on the right side of your chest than on the left side, that means your lung will have more room on your right side. Still, it will not have enough room to do anything. But, if It moves your heart a little bit more over to the left, it can put a lobe in your lung to the right. That way your lung can have three lobes on the right side and two lobes on the left side.
