What is the major difference of a red blood cell and a white blood cell?

The biggest difference is that a red blood cell has no nucleus where as a white blood cell does. A red blood cell has no nucleus because it needs all the space inside the cell for the haemoglobin which is stored inside it and is the oxygen attrcting chemical. White blood cells can have either a bean shaped nucleus which would make it a lymphocyte or a double lobed nucleus which would make it a phagocyte. Another difference is that white blood cells are bigger than red blood cells.

If all cells in your body start out life with the same inherited information on how to build proteins then what caused the differences between a red blood cell and a white one Between a white blood?

The differences in cell type arise from the process of selective gene expression, which means that different sets of genes are activated or repressed in each cell type. This results in the production of specific proteins and ultimately determines the cell's function and characteristics. For example, red blood cells express genes that make them specialized for oxygen transport, while white blood cells express genes that make them part of the immune system.
