      I presume you refer to the white blood cells?

      They are part of immune system, their job is to fight pathogen attack, clear the debris afterwards, and patrol around in case there is anything “foreign” in the blood.

      They are basically the cleaners of our bodies, helping to remove bacteria, viruses and damaged cells
