The number of ways to answer the assignment can be calculated by finding the number of possible choices for each question and then multiplying them together.
For each question, there are 4 possible choices. Since there are 5 questions in total, the total number of possible ways to answer the assignment is 4^5.
Calculating 4^5 gives us 1024, so the correct answer is:
1,024
