Just about as many as there are. The important thing is to have one or
more time varying control elements (ie envelope or knob tweak) applied
to to a filter in subtractive synthesis, or applied to a modulating oscillator
in FM, or a vector pointer in  'Vector synthesis' (a la Wavestation) and so
on..

In general, the more  synthesis parameters that change over time, the more
'dynamically changing'  the sound is likely to be. Very few sounds except
fixed waveforms aren't dynamically changing in some way. If this is too
obvious a response, you may need to rephrase your question...
