Hello Boys!!

Hope everyone has completed their work. Today we'll look into yesterday's answers and will do rest of the exercise from the reader.

Let's start!! Read it once 👇

PLEASE  NOTE  👇

So far the noun or nouns to which the apostrophe + s  is added to show possession has/have been living things.

*When apostrophe + s    is not used to show possession:-

 For non-living things, the apostrophe + s   is not used.

 Instead,  " of, the, or of t " is used to show something is part of a non-living thing.
For example: 

 The reason for this is that unlike living things, non-living things cannot own things.
