What pumps blood toward the lungs where it exchanges carbon dioxide for oxygen?

Oxygen passes into the blood and carbon dioxide leaves it through the walls of the capillaries which surround the alveoli in the lungs. It's not really correct to use terms like 'pump' and 'collect', as this is a simple process of diffusion.


What is the process in which deoxygenated blood comes to the lungs to get oxygen?

Deoxygenated blood comes to the lungs to be reoxygenated in the respiratory process. This involves both blood flow and the circulation of oxygen from it's separation from room air into base gas components in the lungs. The perfusion process is also another name for it, but this is a little general. The blood itself circulates to the lungs via the pulmonary artery (the only artery to carry deoxygenated blood) to the lungs where the spent oxygen is exchanged as carbon dioxide for new oxygen molecules via the perfusion process and is then returned to the heart via the pulmonary vein(the only vein to carry oxygenated blood).
