Proper grammar - Memories (because they are plural), Appears (because you are referring to the 'convergence'), Skills (because you are increasing the number of them)

Improper - Resources (should be resource), Informations (should be information)

Comma Use - Your last statement was correct.

I hope this helps!

This is obviously a homework question, so you should be doing it yourself. Here is how you decide whether there should be an s.

What does the word describe? Does it describe a single object or concept, or does it describe 2 or more? For example, if "appears" refers to "convergence", it needs an s. If it refers to "companies", it does not need an s.

A comma is used to separate 2 ideas. What could happen in the reader's mind if you do not use a comma?

No. Those sentences are expressing plurality (more than one :aka dog(s) because there are more than one.)
They do not have appostraphes.
FYI: You spelled alot of things wrong!
