Answer:
Singular Possessives
Add 's to singular words to show possession.
Dog's collar sister's backpack car's engine
(dog + 's) (sister + 's) (car + 's)
If a singular word ends in s, it is still necessary to add 's.
Charles's sneakers Bess's dresses bus's tires
(Charles + 's) (Bess + 's) (bus + 's)
Plural Possessives
If you have added an s to make a word plural (for example, cat ⇒ cats), adding 's will sound ridiculous (cats's). In that case, add only the apostrophe to the end of the word.
Dogs' collars sisters' backpacks cars' engines
(dogs + ') (sisters + ') (cars + ')
Just like singular possessives, plural possessives that don't end in s add 's.
Children's homework fish's bowls octopi's tentacles
(children + 's) (fish + 's) (octopi + 's)
