Which of the following statements concerning complement activation is FALSE? Complement activation involves a large set of serum proteins which cleave and activate other complement proteins Complement activation is stimulated by TCRs in T-lymphocytes The classical pathway is activated by antibody-antigen interaction The alternate pathway is activated by C3b opsonized on pathogens The lectin pathway is activated by microbial polysaccharides
