What's Normal?
		One: The normal heart is made of of four chambers: The atria which gather the blood and pump it into the ventricles, and The ventricles which pump the blood out to the body. The left side of the heart pumps blood to the body, while the right side of the heart pumps blood to the lungs. Valves are the little flappers that separate the two chambers.
