Which of the following statements are true for antigen presentation.   a. Antigen presentation means that other cells attach the pathogen first and present it to T cells.   b. Antigen-presenting cells display protein fragments, resulting from the digestion of the pathogen, in complex with MHC receptor to B cells   c. Antigen presenting cells display protein fragments, resulting from the digestion of the pathogen, in complex with MHC receptor on their surface.   d. Antigen-presenting cells are phagocytic cells   e. Antigen presentation is required for T cell activation   f. Cytokines released by macrophages are required for T cell activation   g. T cell receptors recognize the MHC receptors in complex with antigen fragments displayed by antigen-presenting cells.   h. Phagocytic cells are involved in innate immunity. Therefore they have no role in T-cell activation
