Acceptance is the only option that fits the definition provided. It is the manifestation of assent (agreement) to the terms of the offer, and it must be communicated in a manner invited or required by the offer. The objective theory of contracts means that the courts will determine whether an agreement exists based on the objective manifestations of the parties' intent, rather than solely relying on their subjective beliefs or intentions. Revocation is the act of withdrawing an offer before it is accepted, while a proposal and counteroffer are alternative offers, not manifestations of assent.
