Use of don't/ de quiIn the following sentence, "La chaise, don't/ de laquelle tu as cassé le pied, est maintenant inutile," I interpreted it to mean whose leg you broke and thus answered don't / de qui and not de laquelle. Why am I wrong?

Passé composéIn writing challenge A2 week 64: "Marie was born in Paris and she grew up in the capital". I've read that passé composé is for events in the past with a clear beginning and end. "growing up" seems rather fuzzy, so I went with "..et elle grandissait.." Why is that wrong?

Is feus not a correct mpl. inflection for feu?

WordReference supports feus as correct and feux as an synonym/substitute for feu, so I'm a bit confused. Your expertise would be much appreciated here. Merci d'avance pour l'aide !
