The artery that carries blood from the heart to the lungs to pick up carbon dioxide is the pulmonary artery. It transports deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs, where gas exchange occurs, allowing carbon dioxide to be expelled and oxygen to be absorbed. After this process, the oxygenated blood returns to the heart via the pulmonary veins.

Why do arteries carry oxygen poor blood?
The pulmonary arteries carry deoxygenated blood from the right ventricle of the heart to the lungs, where the hemoglobin molecules in the red blood cells pick up oxygen molecules. The blood is being carried away from the heart, which classifies these vessels as arteries even though the blood does not contain oxygen.
