Answer:

Exclamation point

Step-by-step explanation:

An external punctuation mark is used to signal the end of a sentence.

Of the four given options, only an exclamation point signals the end of a sentence.

Dash (—) is an example of internal punctuation.

Hyphen is a short line (-) that connects the parts of a compound word.

Apostrophe is a punctuation mark (') that indicates either possession or the omission of certain elements, and so it cannot be external punctuation.
