Answer: E

Step-by-step explanation:

Each colored ball represents an atom. We are looking for a molecule (collection of bonded atoms) with 3 types of atoms. So we are looking for a molecule with 3 colors attached. E had red, blue, and yellow, and is the correct answer.

D is incorrect because while there are 3 atoms present, not all three are bonded.
