I can't give the table sorry but I can tell you the difference. The red blood cells are primarily responsible for oxygen transport to the tissues of the body. They have the pigment, haemoglobin, which assists them in this task.
On the other hand, white blood cells are involved in the defence mechanism of the body. They are involved in a variety of tasks that contribute to the resistivity of the body towards various diseases. They engulf any foreign particles that enters the body through injuries and may prove harmful to the body. They also produce antibodies which are involved in antibody-antigen reactions and contribute to the immunity of the body.
They perform amoeboid movement unlike the red blood cells which move together in stacks through the blood vessels.
The white blood cells can also escape from the blood vessels( which is known as diapedesis) and attack foreign particles in the interstitial spaces unlike the red blood cells which cannot escape from the blood vessels out of their own free accord.

White Blood Cells are protective cells to help fight off germs. Not as many as Red Blood cells

RBC is shape like donut. WBC varies in shape and often are larger.
RBC has no nucleus and have protein Hemoglobin (Fe+2) to carry 4 mole O2 per mole of Fe+2. WBC has nucleus and a lot of ribosomes to make hydrolyic enzymes and antibody to protect the body from invaders.
WBC varies: there are macrophage. NK Cell. Lymphocytes. B cell. Cytotoxic T cell. Helper T cell, memory cell.........

Red blood cells carry the blood to your veins. White blood cells are the virus beating cells. They carry the things needed to kill viruses.
