Correct answer: C
The correct option is C (128). Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses have a length of 128 bits, organized into eight groups of four hexadecimal digits separated by colons. This expanded address space was designed to replace the limited 32-bit architecture of IPv4, providing 2128 unique addresses.
