Solution

The correct option is D The two buildings' doors and windows were damaged in the blast.
Apostrophe is used to indicate possession. Apostrophe is used before 's' with singular nouns and after 's' with plural nouns. Here, 'buildings' is a plural noun and doors and windows belong to the buildings. Therefore, the correct use of apostrophe is: C) The two buildings' doors and windows were damaged in the blast.
