This is a tricky question, according to the definition of molecule, which is a group of atoms bonded together to form a compound, therefore this definition would not match what the question is asking, Carbon dioxide is made of Carbon and Oxygen atoms, not molecules, therefore assuming these definitions, none of these could be the answer, the correct answer would be DIFFERENT ATOMS. Therefore the best answer will be letter D
