The electrode where reduction occurs
An electrolytic cell
A cell with a negative voltage charge.
No, reduction of oxygen does not occur during photosynthesis. In photosynthesis, oxygen is produced as a byproduct when water molecules are split during the light-dependent reactions in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts.
The anaerobic reactions of cellular respiration occur in the cytoplasm of the cell.

Reduction occurs at the cathode in an electrolytic cell.
In the electrolytic cell, electrons flow from the negative terminal (cathode) to the positive terminal (anode). This flow allows for the oxidation of ions at the anode and the reduction of ions at the cathode, resulting in the desired chemical reactions to occur.
In a nickel and copper electrolytic cell, nickel would likely be the anode since it typically undergoes oxidation to release electrons into the external circuit. Copper, on the other hand, would be the cathode where reduction reactions occur.
Electrolytic reduction is a process where a chemical compound is reduced (gains electrons) using electricity as the driving force. This occurs at the cathode of an electrolytic cell when a voltage is applied, causing a reaction to take place. This method is often used for extracting metals from their ores.
