multichambered
Having multiple compartments
Having multiple separate compartments or enclosed spaces.
The term appears in biological contexts—a multichambered heart has distinct sections for blood flow—and in technical descriptions: multichambered rockets, multichambered ovaries in plants.
The nautilus shell is multichambered, with the animal occupying only the outermost section.
