For each of the following statements, indicate whether the statement is true or false. If false, explain why.

b. The gene for the T-cell receptor must be cut and spliced together before it can be expressed
c Our bodies face the greatest onslaught from foreign invaders through our skin
d. Increased production of antibody in the immune system is driven by the presence of antigen
e. Innate immunity is deployed only during the primary response, and adaptive immunity begins during a secondary response
f. Autoimmunity and immunodeficiency are two different terms for the same set of general disorders
g. If you receive intravenous immunoglobulin to treate a snakebite, you will be protected from the vemom of this type of snake in the future, but not from the venom of other types of snakes
h. Innate and adaptive immunity work collaboratively to mount an immune response against pathogens
i. The genomic sequences in our circulating T cells for encoding a T-cell receptor are the same as those our parents carry in their T cells
j. Both the innate an adaptive arms of the immune response will be capable of responding more efficiently during a secondary response
k. Memory cells save portions of the pathogen they encounter for later use during a secondary response
