White blood cells are produced inside the bone marrow and stored in your blood and lymphatic tissues. Because some white blood cells have a short lifespan of one to three days, your bone marrow is constantly producing them.

Answer:
Answer: The white blood cells have a short lifespan as they are destroyed by the lymphatic system of the body.
The white blood cells or the leukocytes have an average lifespan in between 13 to 20 days whereas the red blood corpuscles can live up to 120 days.
The RBCs are also removed by the spleen to stay in the bloodstream after completion of their lifecycle.
WBC count is very important to define the immune system of the body.
