Kanji meaning 'action' - 行動, 活動, 作用, 仕草

Japanese Language Kanji
1

hi! so basically, there are a lot of kanji out there that all seem to mean ‘action’ in one way or another; and I can’t tell which context to use each in (I’m assuming each word has some sort of nuance and that they aren’t just all synonyms)

the words in question are:
koudou（行動）
katsudou（活動）
sayou（作用）
shigusa（仕草）

how do you differentiate between these? thanks for your help~
