Well, living organisms float. People do, if they keep still and don't thrash about. So do ducks. OK, that's a narrow range of samples.
Depends on how much air you have in your lungs. Exhale completely and you'll just sink. There are other considerations though, like salinity, that strongly affect buoyancy.
Cue comparison of ducks, wood, and very small rocks.
