Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This should be marked with a red flag. but if it is what I think it is, then you want either an example or a definition.

The simplest definition is that an action verb does something. It is not a transition of any kind.

Example

He ran joyously to meet his parents who were just coming home. Ran is the action verb.

It depends,

If this is "They composed the music piece wonderfully"

-> Yes! This is a verb because here composed desribes an action.

If this is "They were very composed while this was going on."

-> No! In this case composed is an adjective. It is describing them, they were composed.
