Are the muscle layers in the left and right side of the heart the same thickness?

What is their signifiance. What does the right side of the body supply? What does the left side supply?Are the muscle layers in the left and right side of the heart the same thickness?
The left side is thicker because it has to pump blood round most of the body. The right side is thinner because it only has to pump blood round the lungs.
