Answer:

J.J. Thomsons model represents the structure of an atom.

J.J. Thomson's experiments with cathode-ray tubes showed that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged subatomic particles or electrons. Thomson proposed the plum pudding model of the atom, which had negatively-charged electrons embedded within a positively-charged particles.
