1. Right answer:
Ella es de Colombia.
In this sentence, es is the conjugation of the verb ser for the third person singular in the simple present. So ella matches the third person singular in feminine form. So here the verb ser is being used as description, standing for the nationality of a woman. The other sentences use this verb in an incorrect manner. We can rewrite the other sentences to make them correct in the following way:
Tú eres alegre.
El primo es moreno.
Yo no soy amable.
2. Right answer:
