Answer 11

I think it's either A or C

Answer 12

Well ummm, it seems like B, C and D all follow the same form:
They put the apostrophe on the second of possessive names.

Answer 13

A is really the only one that breaks this pattern yes?

Answer 14

Oh it has the word "both" in A and C.
I see. So maybe something else is going on there. Hmm

Answer 15

Yah it might be C.
Bahh now I don't know >.< lol

Answer 16

Well yes but you're suppose to put seperate 's at the end of the name if it's seperate ownership..

Answer 17

Likek why would they own the same essay? seperate ownership..And only if they're conjoin twins that's the only way they could own the same feet...so idk
