Red blood cells are the most abundant in the blood. This is because they are the main component in the blood. The red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body and carry out CO2 and other impurities. The red blood cells act as transports for the nutrients in the body.

Oxygen is the most important element for all the many functions in our body. Without oxygen, we wouldn't be able to survive. Since, red blood cells are the ones carrying oxygen, RBC's are the most numerous blood cells.

Red blood cells also called erythrocytes.
