Atoms are rendered as spheres based at the size of van der Waals radius of each element. "Off" corresponds to "Stick Model", "20%"corresponds to "Ball and Stick Model" and "100%" corresponds to "CPK (Spacefill) Model".
Jmol menu offers a wide assortment of options. Scheme is set using Style menu.
Style > Scheme > CPK Spacefill (Ball and Stick, Sticks, Wireframe)
In the case of proteins, the menu to use is Structures.
Style > Structures > Backbone (Off, Cartoon, Cartoon Rockets, Ribbons, Rockets, Strand, Trace)
