the left side has to pump blood to the rest of the body
Its not. The heart is located in the center of the thorax directly behind the sternum. the reason it is often though to be on the left hand side is that the left ventricle is considerably bigger than the right and so sits a little further to the left than the right does to the right.
left side of the heart
if you are talking diametar metres the heart will be bigger but it really depends on what heart your talking about for example a mouses heart is smaller than a humans lung but a elephants heart is bigger than a humans lung. ants have very small lungs so if you put a human lung in a mouse it would most probaly die and vice versa as the mouse heart would never be a ble to keep a human alive. i think both the human heart and the human lung are ingenious things that should be eaten only on im a celebrity get me out of here. by chris lane
i know my heart is on right side
the right side of the heart contains deoxygenated blood.
Because the pressure on the left side of human heart is higher than the right side of human heart.
Considering this is how the heart is for everyone, there is no name for it. Your left side is bigger because it pumps blood through your body while the right side just fills with blood.
AnswerLeft (reason why it's bigger)
well the heart isn't really on your left, it just grows bigger on one side so that's why people think its mostly on the left :)

No, your heart remains the same size, it just works harder if you are a bigger person, which is why bigger poeple are more at risk from heart problems.
It means you are a normal individual. The right side of the heart supplies flow to and from the lungs. The left side must provide flow to the entire rest of the body. As a result, the left side of the heart must be stronger, hence larger.
A sheeps heart is slightly bigger than a sheeps kidney.
the right side is bigger because it has to pump blood to the whole body
The lungs (even one lung) are much bigger than the heart.
