Final answer:

Conventional dendritic cells process antigens obtained from different routes for presentation to CD4 and CD8 T cells. The route that is not employed by conventional dendritic cells is presentation of unprocessed antigen at the surface.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conventional dendritic cells process antigens obtained from different routes for presentation to CD4 and CD8 T cells. The route that is not employed by conventional dendritic cells is 4) Presentation of unprocessed antigen at the surface.

Conventional dendritic cells typically process antigens through receptor-mediated phagocytosis, macro-pinocytosis, viral infection, and cross-presentation after phagocytosis uptake.
