(1 point)
O The ladie's room is on the other side of the building.
O Marcias' attempt at making dinner was a smashing success.
O The children's playroom was a metaphorical beehive of activity.
O The music industries's profits have fallen sharply over time.

Answer 1

The correct sentence is: The children's playroom was a metaphorical beehive of activity.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence that is punctuated correctly is: The children's playroom was a metaphorical beehive of activity.

In this sentence, the possessive form of 'children' is indicated correctly by adding an apostrophe + s ('s) at the end of the word. This shows that the playroom belongs to the children. Additionally, the sentence is structured properly and the punctuation is used correctly.

On the other hand, the other options have punctuation errors. For example, 'ladie's' should be 'ladies' (plural form). 'Marcias'' should be 'Marcia's' (apostrophe + s to show possession), and 'industries's' should be 'industry's' (apostrophe + s to show possession).
