As mentioned in the plot, all elementals have slight changes in appearence when using their abilities, or in some cases touching their elements. Air is the only element that seems not to be affected by touching her element. All Elementals also have a very slight change in their senses and stength, both physical and magical.
Smells, tastes, sounds, feelings, and eyesight are all improved. Their physical strength was improved slightly. While generally they are stronger than an average witch or wizard, the amount of change depended on the amount of physical strength the person possessed in the first place.
The power of their magic was improved because part of their magic is no longer cut off. Their elemental abilities were always in their systems, but they were previously dormant, which would block some of their magical blood from them.
Of course, again, the amount of improvement depended on their ability beforehand. Someone like Ginny, who was described as a fairly powerful witch, would be much more powerful than say Harry or Ron, while Neville, who tended to be less powerful, would only become slightly more powerful than Harry and Ron.
FIRE: Ginny Weasley: The ability to manipulate and create flame and heat.
WATER: Lavender Brown: The ability to manupulate and create water.
AIR: Cho Chang: The ability to manipulate air and wind.
EARTH: Padma Patil: The ability to manipulate earth (meaning dirt ground rock and sand).
LIGHTNING: Blaise Zabini: The ability to create and control Lightning and electricity.
METAL: Draco Malfoy: The ability to create and control metals.
WOOD: Neville Longbottum: The ability to control plants and help them grow.
LIGHT: Luna Lovegood: The ability to manipulate and control light, including giving it a solid form.
DARKNESS: Pansy Parkinson: The ability to manipulate and control darkness including giving it solid form.
BLOOD: Nymphadora Tonks: No this does not mean she can control blood itself. Instead she can manipulate animals as well as manipulate her form into other animals. She can control weak minded humans, but only through eye or skin contact. Because of the dilution of this line, she can neither control wizards, only muggles, nor can she turn into more than five different animals.
((Note: Just because Slytherins are more open to those of elemental blood does not automatically make them good guys. Those like Crabbe and Goyle are still potential Death Eaters, but they show no hostility toward the Elementals because Voldemort thinks he can convince them to join his ranks))
