The main role of white blood cells is to protect the body against infection and fight infection when they occur.
The only blood cells that function entirely within the blood vessels are red blood cells.
White blood cells do not carry oxygen in the blood.
The function of blood in circulatory is to bring oxygen to the cells around the body. Without blood cells would not be able to get oxygen.
The red blood cells have that function.
The main function of blood cells in lungs is to carry oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body
Erythrocytes are red blood cells that have the main function of delivering oxygen to cells in the body. Leukocytes are white blood cells that are associated with the immune system.

No, the destruction of old red blood cells is not a function of the thymus. The thymus is involved in the development and maturation of T cells, a type of white blood cell important for immune function. The spleen and liver are organs responsible for the removal of old red blood cells from the circulation.
A function of the cell membrane in red blood cells is to regulate the passage of substances in and out of the cell, such as oxygen and carbon dioxide. This selective permeability helps maintain the cell's internal environment and function.
In its most basic function, red blood cells act as oxygen-transports for animal cells.
