Answer:

J.J. Thomson

Step-by-step explanation:

J.J. Thomson's worked on cathode rays and proved that they are negatively charged particles. According to J.J.Thompson's model the electrons are like plums embedded in a sea of positive charge which is akin to the pudding. Thompson's model was proved incorrect after Rutherford discovered the nucleus.

It is the work of J.J Thomson that directly resulted in the development of an atomic model that has negative electrons stuck within a sea of positive material. His proposal was called the plum pludding model. He is the one who discovered electrons.
