C. Concentrations will shift up and down tiny amounts, but hover around the same levels.

The concentration of ions outside the cell and inside the cell will differ depending on what the body needs. There will be times that the charge inside the cell is more positive due to higher concentration of positive ions than outside the cell. But it will tend to go back into equilibrium like pumping out the excess ions out of the cell.
