Explanation:

Question 7

To solve this, we recall musical tempo terms. "A tempo" means returning to the original tempo after a change (like accelerando or ritardando). "Allegro" is a fast tempo, and "andante" is a moderate tempo; they don't refer to returning to a previous tempo.

In musical notation, the accepted abbreviation for "accelerando" (which means to speed up) is "accel.". "Accelera." is not a standard abbreviation, "ac." is too short and non - standard, and "rando" is incorrect.

Answer:

a. a tempo
