Solution

The statement "All myeloid cells are innate" is true. Myeloid cells, which include monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, basophils, eosinophils, erythrocytes, and platelets, are part of the innate immune system. This system provides the first line of defense against pathogens and is not specific to a particular pathogen.

The statement "All lymphoid cells are adaptive" is not entirely true. Lymphoid cells include natural killer cells, T cells, and B cells. While T cells and B cells are part of the adaptive immune system, which is specific to the pathogen and has memory, natural killer cells are part of the innate immune system.

So, the correct answer is "Neither is true".
