Answer:
Red Blood Cells (RBC)
As the name suggests, RBC is red because of the presence of haemoglobin which is an iron-rich protein and binds with oxygen to get the red colour. RBC give a red colour to the blood because of their presence in the blood in a large number. Also known as Erythrocytes, red blood cells are round, small, and bi-concave in shape but due to their flexibility, they appear bell-shaped when passing through small vessels. They carry oxygen to the tissue in the body. To maintain a healthy RBC count in the body, it is essential to take an iron and vitamin-rich diet. Low RBC count causes anaemia and its common symptoms are irregular heartbeat, pale skin, feeling cold, fatigue, and joint pain.
White Blood Cells (WBC)
White Blood Cells are colourless due to the absence of haemoglobin in them. Also known as Leukocytes, white blood cells protect the body from any infections by producing antibodies that build up the defence system of the body against germs and infections. One of the other important factors that help us to differentiate between RBC and WBC is the circulation system used by these cells. WBC use cardiovascular circulation and are also present in the lymphatic. Red blood cells use only the cardiovascular circulatory system
WBC is WHITE BLOOD CORPUSCLES

White blood cells (WBCs), also called leukocytes or leucocytes, are the cells of the immune system that are involved in protecting the body against both infectious disease and foreign invaders. All white blood cells are produced and derived from multipotent cells in the bone marrow known as hematopoietic stem cells
RBC is RED BLOOD CELLS

Red blood cells, also referred to as red cells, red blood corpuscles, haematids, erythroid cells or erythrocytes, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system
