Because it has to pump blood to most of the body, whilst the right ventricle only has the lungs to fill.
In a mirror.
The wall of the left ventricle is thicker because it pumps blood to the entire body. The right ventricle pumps blood to the lungs, so it does not have to be as strong as the left ventricle.The oxygenated blood that comes into the left ventricle has to be transported to all the parts of the body. For this reason, the left ventricle has thicker muscle walls that pump blood at a higher pressure than the right ventricle that pumps blood only to the lungs.
The right ventricle just receive the blood and pump it into the lungs only, but the left ventricle pump the blood to all round the body, to do the ventricle wall is more thicker, that's why the left ventricle have thicker wall..... Hope I helped you!! (Ivy Yumi Y)
the right ventricle contains deoxegynated blood, but the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood out at a much more forceful rate (it has to get to the rest of you body). Therefore, the left ventricle wall is thicker. =]
The muscle layer of the heart, known as the myocardium, is thicker in the left ventricle compared to the right ventricle. This is because the left ventricle pumps oxygenated blood to the entire body, requiring more force and thicker muscular walls. In contrast, the right ventricle pumps deoxygenated blood only to the lungs, necessitating a thinner muscle layer.
The left side of the heart has a thicker ventricular wall. The left ventricle is responsible for pumping oxygenated blood into the aorta, thereby providing oxygen to all parts of the body. The right ventricle, in contrast, only has the responsibility of pumping de-oxygenated blood into the lungs for the exchange of gases, which requires less pressure than pushing blood through the entire body.
it pumps blood into the high resistance systemic circulation
The thicker walls of the left ventricle allow for greater pumping force. This increased force is needed because blood in the systemic circuit must travel much farther than that in the pulmonary circuit.
The left ventricle (the lower chamber on the left side of your heart).
The Left Ventricle has to send blood all through the body. This requires more force, therefore more muscle.
because the left ventricle receives deoxygenated blood from the whole body which mainly contains carbon dioxide and CO2 is a heavy gass
The lower two chambers of the heart are the ventricles. The left ventricle is larger, with thicker walls, than the right ventricle.
