Answer:
Red blood cells or RBC carry oxygen to the tissues in different parts of the body. White blood cells or WBC strengthen the defence mechanism of the body by generating antibodies. The primary difference between RBC and WBC lies in their functionality. While RBC act as carriers, WBC act as creators.

Answer:
RBC – Red Blood Cells
Red blood cells are called Erythrocytes.
RBCs have a bi-concave disc shape
The lifespan of RBC is about 120 days.
Red blood cells do not have a nucleus on maturity.
Due to the presence of haemoglobin, these cells appear red in colour.
Only one type of RBC exists.
They help in the transport of respiratory gases to different parts of the human body
RBCs are produced in the red bone marrow
The components of red blood cells are haemoglobin
These cells make up around 36-50% of human bloodRBC count: 5 million/ mm³ of blood.
The process of formation of RBC is known as erythropoiesis
These cells move between the cardiovascular systems.
Low count of RBCs results in Anaemia.
WBC-white bloodcells
White Blood Cells are called Leucocytes or Leukocytes.
WBCs have an irregular shape
The lifespan of WBC is around 12-20 days after which they are destroyed in the lymphatic system
WBCs are characterized by the presence of a large central nucleus
These cells are colourless, as they do not have any pigment
Different types of WBCs are found in the blood such as neutrophils, B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, eosinophils
They help in producing antibodies to fight against disease-causing microbes
The components of white blood cells are antibodies with the presence of MHC (major histocompatibility complex) antigen cell markers.
They make up around 1% of the human blood.WBC count: 7000–8000/mm³ of bloodThe process of formation of WBC is known as leukopoiesis.
These cells move between the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems.
Low count of WBCs results in Leukopenia
I have read this in my book in chapter -10, so I knew it
it is one of my lesson
hope it helps you Angel ⟬⟭
