Final Answer : D, Explanation :  The offeror,as the master of the offer,has the power to specify the precise time,place,and manner in which acceptance must be communicated.This is called a stipulation.According to both traditional law and the UCC,if the offeror stipulates a particular manner of acceptance,the offeree must respond in that way to form a valid acceptance.
