Answer 2

There's no such thing as a possessive noun, what you're looking for are a few things, you can have possessive pronouns, which answer questions starting with whose, (ie) whose pen is this?
It's mine. So your possessive pronouns are - mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, yours, theirs. Or you could be looking for possessive adjectives, which also can answer Whose, but use a noun, (ie) Whose dog is this? This is her dog. Possessive adjectives are - my, your, his, her, its, our, your, their.
Just remember that adjectives modify nouns, and pronouns replace nouns.
Also, in English we have possessive 's, and that is where you may have a sentence such as- "the wife of my father" which becomes "my father's wife"
note that with possessive 's, it works a few ways, if the word is singular - boy, then you would write "the boy's ball" however is the noun is plural then you write "the boys' balls" and if it is a name ending in "s" but is singluar you need to watch the placement of the "s" such as: Carlos' wife
