Why in a frogs heart does the ventricle have a thicker wall than in the atrium?
because the ventricle is carrying the blood toward the heartBecause the ventricle has to pump blood all over the body whereas the atrium only pumps it to the ventricle.
How does the structure of a frog's ventricular wall compare to it's atrial wall?
The short Answer: The ventricles have thicker walls than the atrium simply because this is the part of the heart that does most of the pumping action by contracting. It has to be strong and fairly thick to cope with the pressure. (Ventricles have thicker walls than the atrium, which creates a higher blood pressure. The left ventricle has thicker walls because it needs to pump blood to the whole body. The wall of the left ventricle is 8-15 mm The right atrium's wall is approximately 2mm in thickness, due to the combined influence of the low pressure of this chamber and the ease of pumping to low pressure areas)
Why are the walls of the ventricle thicker than the walls of the atria?
The ventricles have thicker walls because they need to pump blood out of the heart to the rest of the body, requiring more forceful contractions. In contrast, the atria receive blood from the body and lungs, so they do not need to generate as much pressure and can therefore have thinner walls.
How is a fetal pig and sheep heart similar?
If you look at the back wall of a fetal pig heart, you will see a vessel that is large in size in a sheep compared to the small size of the fetal pig heart. In sheep, the hemiazygous vein develops a connection to the heart through what becomes the superior vena cava.
Where does the foramen ovale allow blood flow to and from?
That is a good question! You get the oxygenated blood from the placenta via umbilical vein in case of the fetus. This vein enters the liver of the fetus. The blood then goes to right atrium of the fetus. The lungs are closed in the fetus. So the blood goes to left atrium through foramen ovale to bypass the pulmonary circulation of the fetus. After the birth of the baby, baby takes the first breath. The lungs get inflated. Blood starts to flow via lungs. This closes the foramen ovale. The marking remains there on the wall between both the atria.
Why in a frogs heart does the ventricle have a thicker wall than in the atrium?
because the ventricle is carrying the blood toward the heartBecause the ventricle has to pump blood all over the body whereas the atrium only pumps it to the ventricle.
What part of the frog's heart is thicker?
The wall of the ventricle is thicker than the walls of the atria because the ventricle pumps blood throughout the body, and the wall of the ventricle needs to be thick snd muscular in order to do so.
Why is the wall of the left ventricle thicker and stronger than the atrium?
The left ventricle is thicker and stronger than the atrium because the left ventricle allows the arteries to rum through it. The arteries have thick cellular walls so they are bigger. The arteries do not run through the atrium.
Why is the ventricle of the frog's heart thicker and more muscular than the atria?
A ventricle's walls are thicker than those of the atrium because it needs to generate higher pressure. This higher pressure is needed to push blood into the circulation, while the atrium only needs to push blood into the ventricle.

Why is the wall of the ventricle thicker and stronger than the atrium?
because it acts like a pumping part of the heart and has to pump the blood towards the lungs for oxygenation and left ventricle pumps the blood into aorta towards body parts......
How do the walls of the atria compare with the walls of the ventricles and why?
The short Answer: The ventricles have thicker walls than the atrium simply because this is the part of the heart that does most of the pumping action by contracting. It has to be strong and fairly thick to cope with the pressure. (Ventricles have thicker walls than the atrium, which creates a higher blood pressure.

How do the walls of the Atria compared with the walls of the ventricles and why are they different?

Why the wall of the ventricle is thicker?
cause it is !! :)
Why are the wall of the left ventricle is thicker than the wall of the right ventricle?
The Left Ventricle has to send blood all through the body. This requires more force, therefore more muscle.
Why is the wall of the left ventricle thicker than that of the right ventricle?
The right ventricle just receive the blood and pump it into the lungs only, but the left ventricle pump the blood to all round the body, to do the ventricle wall is more thicker, that's why the left ventricle have thicker wall..... Hope I helped you!! (Ivy Yumi Y)
What is the wall of the left ventricle thicker the the wall of the right ventricle?
The thicker walls of the left ventricle allow for greater pumping force. This increased force is needed because blood in the systemic circuit must travel much farther than that in the pulmonary circuit.
