        id="ethnicity"
        class="form-control input-underline input-lg ml-0">
          <option [ngValue]="null" disabled> Select </option>

You can handle change event of select tag like this.

onChange(value) {
    if(value == 'Clear ethnicity'){
      this.Ethnicity = '';
}

<select
            #ethnicity
            [(ngModel)]="Ethnicity"
            [class.text-dimmed]="!Ethnicity"
            name="ethnicity" (change)="onChange($event.target.value)"
            id="ethnicity"
            class="form-control input-underline input-lg ml-0">

All you have to do is delete the value "Clear ethnicity" like I did below:

<option [ngValue]="null" [hidden]="clear.selected"></option>
