Styling dropdown using CSS

I am trying to style the dropdown similar to the image here. I am close but there are few things which I am unable to figure out. - How can I add the lines between each item in the list - How can I make the list start from under the "SELECT".

This is what I have so far.

Is there a better way to do this without using CSS? I am fairly new to CSS.

I am not sure how my question is similar. If someone can explain. The post does not have similarity to what I am trying to achieve.

.dropbtn {
    color: white;
    width: 180px;
    padding: 16px;
    font-size: 16px;
    border: none;
    cursor: pointer;
    text-align: left;
    font-weight: 900;
    background: rgba(0, 173, 239, 1);
    border-radius: 0px;
    -moz-border-radius: 0px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 50px 50px 50px 50px;
}

.dropdown {
    position: relative;
    display: inline-block;
}

.dropdown-content {
    display: none;
    position: absolute;
    background-color: #f9f9f9;
    min-width: 160px;
    box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
}
.sphere {
    height: 45px;
    width: 45px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    vertical-align: top;
    /* position: relative; */
    background: black;
    display: inline-block;
    margin-top: 5px;
    margin-left: -55px;
}
.dropdown-content a {
    table-layout: fixed;
    color: black;
    margin-left: 6px;
    padding: 12px 16px 13px 30px;
    text-decoration: none;
    display: block;
}

.dropdown a {
	background:url('sidearrow.png') no-repeat left;
}

.dropdown-content a:hover {
	background:url('sidewhite.png') no-repeat left;
	background-color: rgb(255,131,0);
	color:white;
}

.dropdown:hover .dropdown-content {
    display: block;
}

.dropdown:hover .dropbtn {
    background-color: #3e8e41;
}

div#arrow {
    position: absolute;
    margin-left: 10px;
    margin-top: 11px;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>

Check this provide below jsfiddle, make changes in your .dropdown-content i.e. add left and margin values and set it's z-index value to -1, now to add border, you can make use of border-bottom in .dropdown-content a.

jsFiddle 

.dropdown-content{
    left:8px;
    margin-top:-5px;
    z-index:-1;
    ..........
    ..........
    ..........
}

.dropdown-content a {
 border-bottom:1px solid #111;
    ..........
    ..........
    ..........
}

You still need to adjust some sizes, but it works:

.dropbtn {
    color: white;
    width: 180px;
    padding: 16px;
    font-size: 16px;
    border: none;
    cursor: pointer;
    text-align: left;
    font-weight: 900;
    background: rgba(0, 173, 239, 1);
    border-radius: 0px;
    -moz-border-radius: 0px;
    -webkit-border-radius: 50px 50px 50px 50px;
  position: relative;
  z-index:2;
}

.dropdown {
    position: relative;
    display: inline-block;
}

.dropdown-content {
    display: none;
    position: relative;
  z-index:1;
    background-color: #f9f9f9;
    min-width: 160px;
    box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0,0,0,0.2);
  right: 5px;
  top:-20px;
}
.sphere {
    height: 45px;
    width: 45px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    vertical-align: top;
    /* position: relative; */
    background: black;
    display: inline-block;
  position:relative;
    margin-top: 5px;
    margin-left: -55px;
  z-index:2;
}
.dropdown-content a {
    table-layout: fixed;
    color: black;
    margin-left: 6px;
    padding: 12px 16px 13px 30px;
    text-decoration: none;
    display: block;
    border: 1px solid #000;
    border-top: none;
}
.dropdown-content a:first-child {
  padding-top:22px;
}
.dropdown a {
  
	background:url('sidearrow.png') no-repeat left;
}

.dropdown-content a:hover {
	background:url('sidewhite.png') no-repeat left;
	background-color: rgb(255,131,0);
	color:white;

You can simply add a border-bottom: 1px solid black and you're done.

Working jsFiddle

.dropbtn {
  color: white;

  padding: 16px;
  font-size: 16px;

  text-align: left;
  font-weight: 900;
  background: rgba(0, 173, 239, 1);
  border-radius: 0px;
  -moz-border-radius: 0px;
  -webkit-border-radius: 50px 50px 50px 50px;
}

.dropdown {
  position: relative;
  display: inline-block;
}

.dropdown-content {
  display: none;
  position: absolute;
  background-color: #f9f9f9;
  min-width: 160px;
  box-shadow: 0px 8px 16px 0px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
}

.sphere {
  height: 45px;
  width: 45px;
  border-radius: 50%;
  vertical-align: top;
  /* position: relative; */
  background: black;
  display: inline-block;
  margin-top: 5px;
  margin-left: -55px;

.dropdown-content a {

  margin-left: 6px;
  padding: 12px 16px 13px 30px;
  text-decoration: none;
