Answer 1

The two sentences that use an apostrophe correctly in a plural possessive noun are:

1. The basketball players’ lockers will be cleaned out on Friday.
2. The United States’ national anthem is “The Star-Spangled Banner.”

The first one indicates that the lockers belong to multiple basketball players. The second correctly indicates that the national anthem belongs to the United States as a collective entity.

The other options either make incorrect use of the apostrophe or do not refer to a plural possessive.
