Question

differentiate between auricle and ventricle ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Auricle

The auricles or atria are the upper chambers of the heart which is classified into left and right atria, auricles have thinner walls.

function: Auricles receive deoxygenated blood from the systemic circulation through superior vena cava and inferior vena cava and directed down to the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve which is then sent out from the heart through the pulmonary artery for pulmonary circulation.

Ventricle

The lower chambers the heart are ventricles which consist of left and right ventricles, Ventricles have comparatively thicker walls to withstand the pressure.

function: Ventricles receive oxygenated blood through the mitral valve from the left atrium which then is pumped out through the aorta into systemic circulation.
