Answer

In english we use apostrophe s or 's to show ownership of something for the most part there are other things we use an apostrophe s for, but in this certain situation it is used to show ownership
For Example. One's emotion, the emotion of that one person
Kate's dog. The dog belongs to Kate
Now the s apotrophe or s' is used to show ownership also, but it is for multiple people or things
Ex: The two boys' hats.
The Sanchezes' house ( Sanchez, sanchezes plural a last name)

Hope it helps

Is 'ONES' the same as 'ONE'S'? If not, what is the difference?

Ones is the plural of one.

One's means belonging to one. The opostrophe is used to show ownership in English.
