Electrolyte imbalance can affect the normal function of the brain. Sodium is an important electrolyte maintains homeostasis in the body. Its primary function is to regulate water retention. Low sodium usually decreases serum osmolality. This combination of deficiencies is called Hypotonic hyponatremia.
A sudden drop in sodium and plasma osmolality can cause seizures. Brain function is affected because the water in the body, because start to flow from the extracellular spaces into the intercellular spaces. This causes the brain cells to swell and thus affecting its normal function.
Therapy for this type is IV therapy, particularly hypertonic saline to replace the sodium in the body and normalize plasma osmolality and diuretics are given to aid in water excretion. Therapy should be done slowly and should be closely monitored. More swelling can developed when it is done too quickly.

Answer:
Enzyme
Explanation:
Enzymes are the bio-catalyst that serve to accelerate the metabolic reactions occurring in a living cell. All the metabolic reactions of organisms are catalyzed by enzymes. Each metabolic reaction is catalyzed by specific enzyme. Absence of that particular enzyme leads to absence of the respective product. Since genes code for protein which regulate the specific trait, absence of enzyme does not allow the expression of that trait.
Example: Absence of enzymes for chlorophyll synthesis would lead to absence of chlorophyll from leaves of the green plants.
