Yes. The metal frame and body of the car is electrical ground.
No, the 2004 Saturn Ion does not have two batteries. It is equipped with a single 12-volt lead-acid battery, which is standard for most vehicles. If you're experiencing electrical issues, it may be a sign of a failing battery or other electrical components rather than the presence of a second battery.
In an electrical circuit, the battery current flows from the positive terminal of the battery, through the circuit components, and back to the negative terminal of the battery in a continuous loop.
Unlike older vehicles, today's vehicles have computers and other electrical components that require the battery to remain connected to the vehicle circuitry full time thus requiring a small but constant use of battery power. A battery maintainer will keep a battery charged and can be connected full time without overcharging. These are pocket size version of the automatic battery charger, but only have low current capabilities of 1 amp or less.
There is the possibility the battery could blowup. You can damage the complete electrical system.

It could fry the battery or the electrical system on the vehicles
The battery diagram symbol in an electrical circuit represents a power source that provides electrical energy to the circuit, allowing the flow of current and powering the connected components.

A typical bicycle battery kit includes a rechargeable battery, a charger, a battery management system, and connectors for attaching the battery to the bike's electrical system.
Typically DC is what you get in a battery and AC is what powers your house.
A battery-powered radio operates on electrical energy stored in a chemical form within the battery. When the battery is connected to the radio, a chemical reaction releases stored energy in the form of electrical current to power the radio's components.
