It is a result of thousands of years of evolution. But you also have to look at their functions. The left ventricle is pumping deoxygenated blood through the pulmonary artery to the lungs and back to the left part of the heart (including the left ventricle) which then pumps the oxygenrich blood out in the body. I guess you can imagine that pumping the blood in the body requires more work than pumping the blood to the lungs and back.
I suggest you read more about the circulatory system and the heart if you have an exam or something that you have to prepare to.

The interventricular septum separates the left and right ventricles. This muscular wall prevents the mixing of oxygen-rich and oxygen-poor blood.
You really can't compare the apex with both because of the apex is made up of only one of the ventricles (the left) and the left is thicker than the right.
The walls of the ventricles of the heart aren't thinner than the atria, they are thicker. This is because they require more power as they pump blood around the body, while the atria only pump blood the short distance into the ventricles. More muscular walls are therefore needed to provide this power which is why they are thicker. The left ventricle is even thicker than the right ventricle as it requires a lot more power to pump blood all around the body. The right ventricle only pumps blood to the lungs.
The lower two chambers of the heart are the ventricles. The left ventricle is larger, with thicker walls, than the right ventricle.
No, your left ventrical is larger in size and has thicker walls, because it deals with more pressure.

Because the left ventricle pushes blood through most vessels in the body, so it's thicker because more force is needed for the contraction.

the difference between the ventricles and the atria is that the ventricles are thicker
The lower (ventricles) are muscular and the valves can seal both openings. The upper (atria) are significantly weaker and are not sealed at the venous portal. Both left sides are thicker and stronger than the right (systemic pressure is much higher than pulmonary).
The heart has four chambers. The two ventricles (right and left) are muscular chambers that propel the blood out of the heart (the right ventricle to the lungs, and the left ventricle to all other organs). The two atria (right and left) hold the blood returning to the heart, and at just the right moment empty into the right and left ventricles...
The walls of the left ventricles are very much thicker as compared to the walls of the right ventricle. The left ventricles has to push the blood to whole body. The right ventricle has to push the blood to the lungs only.
the septum seperates the left and right ventricles
The wall of the ventricles is thicker than the walls of the atria as they have to be stronger as they have to pump the blood around the body where as the atria only have to pump blood into the ventricles
