I don't understand the current context.  Nor do I understand Babel. But
purely from a copy-editing perspective, you can say something like

    You can modify the behaviour of a source block by customizing
    system-wide header arguments.  The table below summarizes these
    variables and their standard values

or something like 

    The behaviour of a source block depends on the values of system-wide
    header arguments.  The table below depicts these variables and their
    standard values

Btw, is it "system-wide values of header arguments" or
           "values of system-wide header arguments"?

The first suggestion starts with a "You" - and this style is very
typical of Emacs manuals.  The second paragraph will put one to sleep.
Not a criticism.  Just a suggestion from someone who is bored.
