Answers:

The demonstrative adjectives in Spanish are those words that accompany the noun to mark the distance that separates the speaker from the object, place or person to which they refer.

They agree in gender and number with the noun they modify.

The three demonstrative adjectives are:

Este (This): It describes a noun that is close to the speaker and the listener.  

Ese (That): It points out nouns that are further from the speaker and not easily reachable. The noun may be close to the listener, but not the speaker.

Aquel (That over there): It is referred to nouns that are far away from both the speaker and the listener.

Each one has four different forms that vary by gender and number, and they are listed below:

Masculine Singular: Este (This)

Feminine Singular: Esta (This)

Masculine Plural: Estos (These)

Feminine Plural: Estas (These)

Masculine Singular: Ese (That)

Feminine Singular: Esa (That)

Masculine Plural: Esos (Those)

Feminine Plural: Esas (Those)

Masculine Singular: Aquel (That over there)

Feminine Singular: Aquella (That over there)

Masculine Plural: Aquellos (Those over there)

Feminine Plural: Aquellas (Those over there)

Note, in Spanish (similar to English) the Demonstrative Adjective is generally written before the noun it modifies.

Well, knowing this, let’s begin with the answers:

According to the explanation above este (this) refers to things near the speaker. Here it is written in masculine singular form

According to the explanation above esta (this) refers to things near the speaker and written in feminine singular form

According to the explanation above esa (that) refers to things further from the speaker and written in feminine singular form.

This adjective fulfils the condition of the noun manzana (apple) which is feminine.

In English the sentence is: That apple is red

In english must be: Which is that one?

In this special case of the question above, a word must be written immediately after ese, if not, it sounds incomplete.

For example: ¿Qué es ese ruido? (Which is that noise?)

Ese (That), refers to a noun that is further from the speaker, in this case is Raquel’s desk.
