A Roman Catholic professes the Catholic faith as revealed by Our Blessed Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and preached since then, by his Apostles, and their successors, the Bishops of the Catholic Church. It is called the Catholic religion, not the Roman Catholic religion. "Roman" is a slur that was first in common use in England after the protestant revolt.
The only "Roman Catholic" is a Catholic who lives in Rome, Italy. When speaking of Catholics, it is just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church. You question is not clear, if you are speaking about Catholics in general versus Catholics in Rome, then you need to ask that question. If you are asking about what Catholics do as opposed to what non-Catholics do, then you need to ask that question, etc. Are you asking what Catholic worship is like, private prayer, dietary habits, jobs, etc? For the most part Catholics have been around for two thousand years, and live in pretty much every country in the world, thus there is a a wide range of what Catholics do. About the only thing that they all have in common would be the sacraments, they are all baptized, most of them are confirmed, they all attend Mass and Confession (Reconciliation) regularly (if they are practicing Catholics), etc.
Roman Catholics follow the rules that Jesus Christ laid down for them: to be meek and humble of heart. To love the Lord, their God with all their heart, and all their soul, and all their life, and to love their neighbor as themselves. At least this is the ideal to which every Catholic should be striving. How are we humble? How do we love God with all our hearts? All do we love our neighbor as ourselves. These things we learn from The Bible, from the homilies at Mass, from the inspiration that comes directly from God through our prayer life and our reception of the sacraments, particularly regular Confession and Holy Communion
