Solution

The correct option is A c, b, a, d
An antigen is attracted by chemotaxis and attaches to the cell surface of antigen-presenting cells, such as B-cells, dendritic cells and macrophages. This is followed by antigen processing that includes protein fragmentation (proteolysis) followed by its internalization. Then the antigen is phagocytosed. Its peptide fragments gets transported to the membrane and are expressed as peptide-MHC complex at the cell surface where they can be recognized by the T cell receptor ( TCR ) on a T cell. There are two classes of MHC proteins, MHC class I and MHC class II.
So, the correct answer is ' c,b,a,d'
