Answer
A
a diagram of a cell
B
a data table
C
a three-dimensional representation of an atom
D
a graph showing the change in temperature and volume over time for hydrogen gas

Explanation

A scientific model represents or helps explain a scientific object, system, or process. A diagram of a cell, a three-dimensional representation of an atom, and a graph showing how gas temperature and volume change can all serve as models. A data table simply organizes recorded values, so the answer is “a data table.”
