Q. During electrolysis the species migrate to cathode are :

AFMCAFMC 2000

Solution:

During electrolysis oppositely charged species move towards electrodes i.e., cation (+vely charged ion) move towards cathode (-vely charged electrode) and vice versa.
Oxidation takes place at anode (loss of $e^{-}$)
Reduction take place at cathode (gain of $e^{-}$)
