Nope its the ventricle !
The Komodo Dragon has one heart, which has three different chambers the left atrium, right atrium, and ventricle.
Felines have two atria in their hearts. Located on either side of the organ, they are called the right atrium and the left atrium.
The right atrium controls the hearts rhythm.
Fish hearts have 2 main chambers: the atrium and the ventricle. Fish have the simplest hearts of all the vertebrates.

Squids have 3 hearts. Two of them are bronchial hearts that send deoxygenated blood to the gills (like our right ventricle + atrium) The other heart, the largest of them, is a systemic heart (acting like our left ventricle + atrium) that pumps oxygenated blood to the rest of the body.
The chordate classes that have 3-chambered hearts are Amphibia (the amphibians) and Reptilia (the reptiles). Humans and other mammals (birds too) have a four-chambered heart (left atrium, right atrium, left ventricle, right ventricle). Reptiles and amphibians have a left atrium, a right atrium, but only one ventricle (although the ventricle of reptiles has a small internal wall that divides it to some extent).
