Fc-receptor molecules tend to have short cytoplasmic tails. How does this influence signaling events within the Fc-receptor cell?

A. The Fc receptor is adjacent to secondary messengers (e.g., MAP kinase) that translocate into the nucleus to affect transcription. B. The Fc receptor is dependent upon a co-receptor (e.g., ITAM or ITIM) that will trigger signaling events within the cell. C. The Fc receptor is not directly involved in a signaling event. D. The Fc receptor serves only to enhance or dampen a signaling event. E. The Fc receptor translocates into the cytoplasm where it will binding to secondary messengers.
