had broken
was broking

Who is a relative clause which is used to refer a person or people whereas which is a relative clause used to refer to things.
Hence ‘who represent the’ and ‘who represent a’ can be ruled out.
‘Which represent a’ is also not grammatically correct since a single term is being talked about.
Hence, ‘which represents the’ is the correct usage.
