Explanation:

1. For "Susana, Luisa, Marta", since they are all female names, the correct subject pronoun is "ellas".
2. "Pablo" is a male name, so the subject pronoun is "él".
3. "el señor Rivas" is a formal male title, so the subject pronoun is "usted".
4. "la señora Rivas" is a formal female title, so the subject pronoun is "usted".
5. "Alberto y tú" (Alberto and you) - if "you" is in a Spanish - speaking country that uses "vosotros" (Spain), but if it's a general Spanish - speaking context (other countries), "ustedes" is more common. However, "nosotros" is for "we", so it's incorrect. But if we assume a non - Spain context, "ustedes" is the answer.
6. "Sandra y ella" (Sandra and she) - both are female, so "ellas".
7. "Marcos y María" (Marcos is male, María is female) - the mixed - gender group uses "ellos".
8. "el señor Rodríguez y la señora Rodríguez" (formal male and female) - "ustedes".
9. "Teresa" is a female name, so "ella".
10. "Martín y Roberto" (both male) - "ellos".

For part D:

1. The drawing is of a female, so "ella".
2. Two males, so "ellos".
3. The person being pointed at (assuming male, but without more context, if it's a general person, could be "él" or "ella", but if we assume male - coded clothing, "él").
4. "Soy yo" (I am me).
5. Two females, so "nosotras" (if the speaker is female and among them) or "ellas" (if the speaker is not among them). But since the verb is "Somos" (we are), if the speaker is among them (two females), "nosotras".
