A.
The new instance will have the changes made after the AMI copy as AWS just copies the
reference of
the original AMI during the copying. Thus, the copied AMI will have all the updated data

B.
The new instance will have the changes made after the AMI copy since AWS keeps updating
the AMI

C.
It is not possible to copy the instance store backed AMI from one region to another

D.
The new instance in the EU region will not have the changes made after the AMI copy

copied AMI of the EU region will not have the changes. Thus, after copy the user needs to copy
the new source AMI to the destination region to get those changes.
