The pronouns used to show ownership are:

Possessive pronouns take the place of a noun that belongs to someone or something.

They are: mine, yours, his, hers, its, ours, theirs.

Possessive adjectives describe a noun as belonging to someone or something. A possessive adjective is placed just before the noun it describes.

They are: my, your, his, her, our, their, its.

Example uses:

Jack lives on this street. The house on the corner is his. (possessive pronoun, takes the place of the noun 'house' belonging to Jack)

Jack lives on this street. His house is on the corner. (possessive adjective, describes the noun 'house' as belonging to Jack)
