Bio1.2.1

 * Explain how cells use buffers to regulate cell pH and how cells can respond to maintain temperature, glucose levels, and water balance in organisms.
 * Compare the mechanisms of active versus passive transport.
 * Conclude how the plasma membrane structure functions.
 * Explain changes in osmotic pressure that occurs when cells are placed in solution of differing concentrations.
