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).

What are two major forces that shape and reshape earth? describe how each force works too please?
dexar [7]
<span>The two major forces that shape/reshape the earth are internal forces, i.e.volcanoes and earthquakes and external forces, i.e. weather and the ocean, both of which cause erosion. Volcanoes can add landmass but also can destroy land or cause a winter-like state caused by ash in the atmosphere which can block out the sun and possible killing vast amounts of plant and animal life. Earthquakes can change the land by process of subduction where one plate (land surface or ocean bottom) is forced under another. Erosion wears down geologic formations by the actions of wind and water. Over time water can carve valleys or canyons. Ocean water can erode coastlines by the constant beating of waves on the shore. Wind can carry away particles of land and deposit them elsewhere. Wind and weather combined can be a powerful force for reshaping the earth.</span>
