Answer to the Universal crossword clue Parts of hearts featured in the Universal puzzle is ATRIA.

The term "ATRIA" refers to the upper chambers of the heart in medical terminology. Specifically, the heart is divided into four chambers: two atria and two ventricles. The atria are smaller, thinner-walled chambers located at the top of the heart. Their main function is to receive blood returning to the heart from the body (right atrium) and from the lungs (left atrium).

In the cardiac cycle, blood enters the right atrium from the body through the superior and inferior vena cavae, while oxygenated blood returns to the left atrium from the lungs via the pulmonary veins. From the atria, blood flows into the ventricles, which are the larger, more muscular chambers responsible for pumping blood out of the heart to the lungs and the rest of the body.
