Does Elemental HERO Absolute Zero still trigger if Skill Drain or Destiny HERO - Plasma are active?✓
Absolute Zero is face-up while Skill Drain or Plasma is applying its negation to monsters on the field.
Absolute Zero's destruction effect activates after it leaves the field, in the Graveyard/Banished/Extra Deck. Skill Drain and Plasma only negate effects while the monster is face-up on the field, so Absolute Zero can still trigger and resolve after it leaves.
Is Destiny HERO - Plasma's Special Summon an activated effect?✓
A player is comparing Plasma's Summon to effect activations.
No. Plasma's Special Summon is an inherent Summon procedure, not an activated effect.

A face-down monster equipped by this effect is treated as having 0 ATK.
If Plasma is flipped face-down / leaves the field (ex: "Book of Moon" / "Karma Cut") before this effect resolves, this effect still applies and sends the target to the Graveyard [REF]].
The (2) Continuous Effect applies while "Destiny Hero - Plasma" is face-up on the field.
This effect can be negated by "Skill Drain", but not by "Divine Wrath" because it does not activate.
The (3) Continuous Effect applies while "Destiny Hero - Plasma" is face-up on the field.
This effect can be negated by "Skill Drain", but not by "Divine Wrath" because it does not activate.
This negates the effects of monsters that are face-up when their effects resolve.
This does not negate the effect if the monster is flipped face-down / leaves the field.
