I want to copy a table's schema as well as the data within that table to another database table in another database on a live server. How could I do this?

In Commandline:
mysqldump -h localhost -u username -ppassword [SCHEMA] --tables [TABLE] | mysql -h otherhost -u username -ppassword [SCHEMA2]
This will copy table inside SCHEMA on localhost to SCHEMA2 on otherhost.
localhost and otherhost are just hostname and might be same or different.

In BASH you can do:
mysqldump database_1 table | mysql database_2

If you just want Structure to be copied simply use
CREATE TABLE Db_Name.table1 LIKE DbName.table2;
Ps > that will not copy schema and data
