No. Red blood cells transport oxygen. The hemoglobin molecules in red blood cells contains four iron atoms which all can have four bonds to oxygen atoms. Thus, red blood cells transport oxygen. Leukocytes (white blood cells) are technically part of the immune system and fight off bacteria and viruses.
