Note
The plural belongs to the countable readings of the singular: things done, and especially pastimes and outings, as in after-school activities or holiday activities. The uncountable sense, the plain state of being active, has no plural. A busy harbor shows a lot of activity, not activities. In the technical uses, such as decay rate in physics or reactivity in chemistry, the plural is possible for comparing different samples or substances.
