Answer #1

the right answer is option D or " in both cases there is an abnormal opening in the partition that separates the right and left side of the heart"

in atrial septal defect a abnormal oppenings or hole is found in between the atriaor  in the wall (septum) that separates the heart's upper chambers( Atria) and in case of ventricular septal disease a abnormal opening or hole is found  in the wall (septum) that separates the heart's lower chambers (ventricles)
