What is the language point for it's?
There are two words, "its" and "it's". They sound exactly the same. "ITS" is an adjective form of the pronoun "it", but confusingly it does not have an apostrophe as do most possessives. "ITS" describes something attributable to the specified or unspecified antecedent. ("Its size is variable.") "IT'S" , on the other hand, is NOT a possessive using an apostrophe, but rather a contraction of the words "it is". ("It's going to rain.) So, when you can replace the word with "it is", use the apostrophe form "it's". Otherwise the apostrophe form is not used.
