Which of these is a action, or a state of being?

he helped his friend

they appear happy and content

Jordi drives to school each day

The snowfall closed schools everywhere

The dog sniffed at its food

The meat tastes funny

Did you taste the ice cream?

The young boy smelled the flowers.

She looked depressed.

The coach announced the dates of the scrimmage.

The owner of the store stocks all types of soda.

He dribbled the ball down the court.

Everything seems to be in order, said the train conductor.
