Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

An element is a substance, made up of atoms of the same substance and has independent existence. An element cannot be broken up by physical or chemical processes.

If we look at the images closely, image A represents a substance made up of the same kind of atoms. All the balls are exactly of the same colour and type, hence the answer.
