For a proper acceptance to occur, the offer must be communicated to the offeree before they can accept it. If the act of acceptance occurs before the communication of the offer, it cannot be considered a valid acceptance because the offeree cannot agree to something they are not aware of. Therefore, none of the provided options accurately describe the legal principles of offer and acceptance in contract law.
