You're chatting with a friend about weekend activities. Select ALL the sentences where the -ing word is a gerund (functioning as a noun).

The correct answers are Swimming keeps me healthy and I love hiking in the mountains.

"Swimming" is a gerund acting as the subject (noun) of the sentence. "Hiking" is a gerund acting as the object (noun) of "love." In contrast, "swimming" in "swimming pool" is a participle describing the noun "pool," and "dancing" is part of the continuous verb phrase "is dancing."
