Atria is the receiving chamber and it is located at the top while ventricles are the one responsible for pumping blood out of the heart either to oxygenate the blood or to deliver it into our systems and it is located at the bottom part of the heart

How would you say the structural difference reflects the relative functions of the two heart chambers?

Assuming you mean the atria and ventricles by "the two heart chambers", the fact that in all species the atria are smaller than the ventricles reflects the fact that the atria receive blood from either the body or the lungs and then pump it into the larger and much stronger ventricles. One-way valves between the atria and ventricles prevent backflow of blood from the ventricles to the atria. The ventricles then pump the blood received from the atria to either the oxygenating organ (i.e. gills or lungs) or the body. The much thicker walls of the ventricles reflect the fact that much greater force is needed to pump the blood throughout the body or to the lungs than is needed to pump the blood from the atria to the ventricles.
