Why does one half of the heart have a thicker wall than the other side?

The left ventricle is responsible for pumping blood throughout the entire body, the right side only sends blood to the lungs. Since that's harder work the muscle is larger on the left side.

Why does the left ventricle have thicker muscular walls than the other heart chambers?
Actually two chambers of the heart is more muscular (so basically one side of the heart) Because the one side of your heart only has to pump blood to the lungs were it gets oxyginated but the other side of the heart (more muscular side) has to pump the blood all the way to your toes, and every other organ in the human body! So it has too be more muscular too perform the necessary task that it is asked to do!
Name and compare the heart valves found between the upper and lower chambers of the heart?
the left and right atria or atrium are the upper half as for the lower half the left and right ventricles. the atria fill with blood and then dump the blood in the ventricles. the left side of the heart beats a little quicker than the right side, but it happens so fast that it is barely noticable.
How do you locate your heart?
The heart is located slightly to the left side of the ribcage. It cannot be morphologically located. You are at a better position to locate the position of your own heart with a stethoscope. This device helps you in locating the heart by listening to the heart beat. Where the beats are most prominent your heart should be right beneath it. The heart is located in the center of the chest half way between the nipples in case of men. It is slightly tilted to the left.

Does the right or the left of the heart have the thicker muscle?
The left side of the heart has larger muscle.
Which areas of the heart are thinner or thicker?
The left ventricle (the lower chamber on the left side of your heart).
What side of the body does the bulk of the heart rests?
The bulk of the heart rests on the Left side of this heart.
What side of the heart has thicker muscles and why?
The muscle of the left side of your heart is larger and thicker than the right one because the left part of your heart has to pump blood to your whole body, while the right part only has to pump blood to your lungs. More work needs bigger muscles.
Why is half of the heart blue and half red?
Because the right side of your heart pumps deoxygenated blood and the left side pumps oxygenated blood.
Why does the left ventricle have thicker muscular walls than the other heart chambers?

Why do diagrams and illustration show one side of the heart as red and the other side as blue?
Because, on one side of heart is pure and other is impure. That's why in diagrams and illustration show one side of the heart red and other side is shown in blue colour.

Is the left ventricle thicker than right ventricle because pumps blood against a greater resistance?
The left side of the heart is much bigger and stronger because it must pump blood through out to the entire body. The right side of the heart must only pump blood through the lungs (and then to the left side). So, since the blood is pumped in through and out of the left side with more pressure, the myocardium must be thicker.
What side of heart ventricle has thicker walls and a basically circular cavity shape?
The right side of the heart ventricle is thicker because it contains more muscle since it has to pump blood through the whole body. The right ventricle is thinner because it has less mucle since it only has to pump blood to the left ventricle which is only a few inches away.
