Answer:

Option A) Atoms have lost or gained an electron and have a charge

Explanation:

The result of a loss or gained electron can cause a large or lesser number of protons than the electrons, which causes a charge imbalance because protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge.  If the number of protons or the number of electrons is unequal, then it means that the atom has a charge, and is an ion.  It is a cation if it lost an electron such that it has a positive charge and it is an anion if it gained an electron such that it has a negative charge.
