Answer:

A. It loses an electron

Explanation:

An atom becomes a positive ion when it loses an electron (then there are more protons than electrons in the atom) when it is trying to reach stability. This is called a Cation. The opposite of this is an Anion, when an atom gains an electron to reach stability and becomes a negative ion (because the number of electrons are higher than the number of protons).
