A
Tetralogy of Fallot.
B
transposition of the great arteries
C
Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Return.
D
Pulmonary Atresia with Intact Ventricular Septum.
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The only artery that picks up deoxygenated blood is the pulmonary artery, which runs between the heart and lungs.

Detailed explanation-2: -Your pulmonary arteries carry oxygen-poor blood from your heart to your lungs. This is a vital function. Your blood needs to reach your lungs to gain oxygen and get rid of waste products like carbon dioxide. This blood then returns to your heart, and your heart pumps it out to the rest of your body.

Detailed explanation-3: -Pulmonary circulation transports oxygen-poor blood from the right ventricle to the lungs, where blood picks up a new blood supply. Then it returns the oxygen-rich blood to the left atrium.
