the main function of our lungs in to take away carbon dioxide and refill the blood with oxygen
Yes, in a way. They take out the carbon dioxide from the blood and put the oxygen back in the blood. The sole purpose of the blood is to get oxygen from the lungs and bring it to other body parts and take the carbon dioxide back to the lungs.
The exchange of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and wastes takes place in the lungs during respiration. Oxygen is taken up by the blood from the air in the lungs, while carbon dioxide and wastes are released from the blood into the lungs to be exhaled out of the body.
The heart pumps the blood that takes carbon dioxide to the lungs. So, the heart is a necessary element, but isn't the one effectively doing it.
