Some of your definitions are a bit limited, however generally correct except for "Fetal Alcohol Syndrome", now known as fetal alcohol spectrum disorder. This disorder is caused when pregnant women drink alcohol and the result is that the baby can be born with FASD.

Better check that last one. I believe you mean "Fetal Alcohol Syndrome." This affects babies of mothers who have drunk alcohol during their pregnancies. Also, it may be questionable that abortion takes away a "life form." This is part of the debate. The definition for alcohol is incomplete. A depressant, by definition, cannot be a stimulant. Those are contradictions in terms. Puberty is more connected to hormonal and physical changes than "becoming adult."

I would probably not correct him as I didn't give him the command. Isn't the point of learning these commands is to do then when the command is given? Wouldn't it almost be like the dog dictating commands and now you're following his lead instead of the other way around? My dog will sometimes speak when he wants a treat, even though none were offered. If I played along and have given him the treat, it now turns into him not earning his treat on my terms, but demanding the treat and being rewarded for it. Then I would think if you didn't give the command and he was just laying down to lay down and then was reprimanded for coming out of the stay, I would think that would be confusing to the dog.

I would change abortion to "the termination of a pregnancy."
Double check wherever you looked up puberty you could find a better definition such as the biological process experienced by an adolescent before becoming an adult.

Very few of these definitions are sentences (they need verbs), which is what you have to provide. The definition of abortion is way too broad, and it's fetal alcohol syndrome, not fatal.

No. Abortion, nicotine, tar, carbon monoxide, drugs, stimulants, depressants, etc., are all too narrow.
