Write: When a role is created with Write permission, the user can perform all the functionalities and also download the logs. However, the user cannot delete profiles.
Delete: When a role is created with Delete permission, the user can perform all functions, download data and delete profiles.

These permissions are interlinked. Thus, if a role is created with delete permissions then automatically the role will be enabled with read and write permissions.
