The reaction of reduction always undergoes with the cathode, the positive ion will migrate towards the cathode with the negative charge whilst the anode always has oxidation reaction. These two types of reaction does not change.

Answer:

the cathode, which is negatively charged

Explanation:

In an electrolytic cell, there are two electrodes; the anode and the cathode. The anode is positively charged while the cathode is negatively charged.

Oxidation occurs at the anode as the positive ions loose electrons. The electrons lost at the anode travels via a conductor to the cathode. Positive ions migrate to the cathode, accept these electrons and become reduced.
