Auricles are the two upper chambers of the heart divided into right auricle and left auricle.Right auricle always contains deoxygenetated blood (blood mixed with carbon dioxide) and left one has the oxygenetated blood. The two types of the blood do not get mixed up as the two auricles are separated from one another by an interauricular septum.

They are to pump blood into the lower ventricles. They are also, according to my final exam I am holding in front of my face, supposed to act as a stationary reservoir for blood going through the atrioventricular valves.

I forgot to say that there are two auricles, and the Inf. and Sup. Vena Ceva feed into the auricles.

An auricle is a piece of the base of a leaf or petal on some plants. It looks like an ear and it is very sensitive when touched or when sprayed with certain chemicals.
