Absoulte strength denotes the total amount of force an athlete can produce, regardless of bodyweight or size, and it is measured the same for any individual, while relative strength denotes the amount of strength an athlete has when compared to his body weight.

Baseball and soccer are examples of two individual sports.

IRISSAK [1]

The first answer is true in the sense that these two sports are individual from one another, but it is false in the sense that both these sports are team sports (not just one person is playing).

The second answer is false. For example, if I'm running a 5k without ever having run one before, I'm not sure how long it will take me to finish.

The third answer is true. Swimming is a great exercise that will increase lung capacity and thus improve respiratory health.

The fourth answer is true. A scale will only tell you numbers; it cannot determine what your healthy/comfortable weight is.

The last answer is true. By practicing an activity more, you will become better at it.
