The left and right atrium are the upper chambers, and the right and left ventricles are the lower chambers (Fritz & McKenzie, 2017). All four chambers work together in a harmonized effort to continuously circulate blood. Blood is received by the atria and then passed into the ventricles, where it is then sent to the lungs to be oxygenated and ultimately to the rest of the body (Fritz & McKenzie, 2017).................Continue
