Some examples of models in science can be different kinds of species and materials or even substances. NaCI can be used as a model in a science experiment.
Others:
Ball-and-rod representations of molecules.
Anatomical models, often to scale.
Mathematical models, in which the effects of changing the variables by known increments can be determined. The power of even relatively modest modern computers allow enormously complex scientific and engineering numerical models to be run with fair confidence in the results.
Some types of models used in science include mathematical models, which use equations to describe relationships between variables; physical models, which are physical representations of systems or processes; and conceptual models, which are verbal or visual representations to help understand complex ideas. Each type of model serves a specific purpose in helping scientists understand and explain phenomena.
Preface: Not knowing for what purpose or what age makes this a bit tough but here we go
Young: Profiles are a lot of fun to make and very visual. Just get a see-thru container and use the elements of the ground outside or even more simply, shades of sand to represent the layers of the earth. You can how far you would like to zoom in (ie: crust to mantle or grass to rock/clay). Make sure you plan ahead to figure out what layer is going to go in first, because the first thing that goes in, is the lowest level of your piece. On the opposite hand, the grass or top must go in last. If you do a land one (as opposed to a water profile[very fun too]) you basically will be able to see what your standing on from a side view.
Older: I was also thinking about maybe some sort of ground water polution lab. Make a profile (side viewable landscape) in a see-thru container and add the elements you want to each layer. Such as grass on top, then dirt below, then some harder dirt maybe, clay, then maybe a rockier layer with some water in it, so on, or stop there. Then add some oil (due to the obvious/drastic change in clear water to black) or other polutant to the top and simply record observations, note effects, possibly create solutions if the effects are adverse, science science ramble ramble.
You could make the profile more realistic with even older learners using a tilt and possibly a town section high up in the profile and make the layered landscapes quite real with little sim roads and buildings with grabage, polutants, fabrics, man-made materials (ex:ground plastic), etc. This would provide more variables to change the outcome of a simple drop of oil straight onto grass and straight to the ground water, which doesnt exactly happen all the time; It generally has more human elements involved.
Hope this helps, have fun either way. Go science!

Science is all arond you. There is many different types of science.
Basic science.
O2 have many types of the latest cellular mobile phones available. One can get the latest iPhone models, BlackBerry 10, Samsung Galaxy 4 and Nokia models.
There are two types of ER (Entity-Relationship) models: conceptual ER models, which focus on defining entities, attributes, and relationships in a domain, and logical ER models, which involve translating the conceptual ER model into a specific database schema design.
Computer Model
The three types of models used in science are : Physical models Mathematical models Conceptual models
The answer is Physical, Computer, and Idea. These are the types of models. These models can be used in everyday life.
There are two main basic type of models in science. The firs type is the covering law model and the other type is deductive model.
the three types of models are physical models,idea models and computer models.
Models are useful in science, because it is easier for some to understand then words.
Science model
mathematical models conceptual models and Physical models
There are various models of Science that are best out of waste. They contain various models of the things that we use in our day to day lives like the tin can lanterns.
physics science fair still models
some models that think about in the natural world
There are a number of different types of working models that you could use for a science exhibition. You could demonstrate the flow of water in the water cycle for example by setting up a fountain system.
Three types of scientific models are conceptual, mathematical, and physical models. ~Ares
