The heart consists of two sides: the right side and the left side, each with distinct functions. The right side receives deoxygenated blood from the body and pumps it to the lungs for oxygenation, while the left side receives oxygen-rich blood from the lungs and pumps it out to the rest of the body. Structurally, the left side has thicker walls to handle the higher pressure required for systemic circulation, whereas the right side has thinner walls suited for the lower pressure of pulmonary circulation. Overall, both sides work in tandem to ensure efficient blood circulation throughout the body.
