An exclamation point is used at the end of an exclamatory sentence.

Example:

You shouldn't do that!

An apostrophe is used to show possession, create a contraction, or to show an omission.

Example:

Garfield's tail is orange and white.

I can't stay angry at Garfield.

John is friends with Jennifer O'Riley.
