What is the difference between blood clot and scab?
the term blood clot is fancier than the term scab. A scab is often larger (a clot can be so small that it fits inside your artery) a scab is often an older and external clot which has hardened.While blood is solidifying and bleeding has not quite stopped, it is clotting. "Scab" has other meanings too (such as one who breaks a strike) while blood clot is unambiguous.
What do white blood cells do in a scab?
Scab is the rusty brown, dry crust that forms over any injured surface on skin, within 24hrs of injury.Whenever our skin is injured due to any cut or abrasion, it starts bleeding due to blood flowing from the severed vessels. This blood containing platelets, fibrin and blood cells, soon clots, to prevent further blood loss. The outer surface of this blood clot, that is exposed to air, dries up (dehydrates) to form a rusty brown crust, called a scab, which cover the underlying healing tissues like a cap.The purpose of a scab is:to prevent further dehydration of the healing skin underneath,to prevent it from infections,to prevent any entry of contaminants from the external environment.Scabs generally remain firmly in place until the skin underneath has been repaired and new skin cells have appeared, after which it naturally falls off.

What remains is the fibrin part of the clot, which appears "white" in the mouth.

When you bleed red blood cells form a scab?
Red Blood Cells (RBC) do not "form a scab", they are merely trapped in the scab during blood coagulation. Platelets, carried in the blood serum form the scab by sticking to the endothelium (inside) of the blood vessel forming a plug to end bleeding. Clotting proteins than begin to condense and form the hard scab. Human RBC do not have DNA and therefore cannot act in response to external stimuli like a cut.
