Answer:

Acknowledgement number

Step-by-step explanation:

The Acknowledgement number field provides the next expected segment.

TCP packets can contain an acknowledgement, which is the sequence number of the next byte the sender expects to receive this also is an acknowledgement of receiving all bytes prior to that.
