It’s is a contraction of “it is” or “it has.” The apostrophe indicates that part of a word has been removed.
Its with no apostrophe is the possessive word, like “his” and “her,” for nouns without gender.
Its’ is not an accepted word.

I knew most of the answer, but sorry to say I never knew it’s was also a contraction of “IT HAS.”
THANKS.
