16 The left side of the heart is more muscular than the right.

The left ventricle has a thicker muscular wall than the right ventricle because it needs to generate a higher pressure in the blood as it leaves the left side of the heart entering the aorta to be distributed throughout the systemic circulation. Therefore, the pressure of the muscle contraction is greater around the left ventricle than the other chambers.
