The answers are: A) Three quatrains and one couplet, B) Line of poetry with five metrical feet, and E) unstressed and stressed syllable groups

Explanation:

That's the structure of a Shakespearean sonnet. Also, the rhyming scheme of a Shakespearean is ababcdcdefefgg not abbacddceffegg and the rhyming sounds are at the end of lines, not the beginning.
