firstly the left side of the heart is more muscular then the right which enables the left side to provide enough pressure to pump oxygenated 'red' blood around the heart. The aorta is made of elastic tissue so it can successfully expand and 'cope' under the high blood pressure. This ensures the blood can successfully travel around the body. The superior and inferior vena cava, like other veins, contain valves which prevent the backflow of blood as the deoxygenated blood has a low pressure. This assists in the transport of the deoxygenated blood to the heart. The right ventricle is large to generate enough pressure to transport the deoxygenated blood to the lungs via the pulmonary artery wheras the left ventricle has thick, muscular walls to 'push' the blood successfully around the body. The left atrium is has a small chamber to generate a higher pressure of blood and the septum is made up of muscular tissue to provide a wall seperating the ventricles....
So all in all, the structure of the heart enables it to effectively pump blood around the body.

How are the structure and function of an organisms parts related?
The structure and function relate because what the structure is made of infuences what the organ's function is. An example is that the heart is made of strong muscle cells. Therefore, it is fit to do the job of pumping blood around the body.
