A solid with a unit cell that follows a structure to the face-centered cubic crystal would look like that shown in the attached picture. Thus, the model should consist of 8 balls, one for each corner of the cube. Also, It would need 6 balls, one at each center of the cube's faces. So, the answer is A.
