Answer is: A. 1 molecule with 10 atoms.
Every ball represent one atom in one molecule.
The ball and stick model is a molecular model of a chemical substance that shows the three-dimensional position of the atoms and the bonds between them. The atoms have spherical shape and they are connected with sticks (one, two or three, depends on bonds).

Answer:

Option A. 1 molecule with 10 atoms

Explanation:

Each ball in the diagram represents an atom and the stick represents a bond.

A careful look at the diagram of the student's model reveals that the student's model contains 10 balls which represents 10 atoms. This means that a molecule of the student ball-and-stick model contains 10 atoms.
