Final answer:

The sixth term of the geometric sequence is 1024.


Step-by-step explanation:

The given sequence is a geometric sequence with a common ratio of 4. To find the sixth term, we can use the formula:

an = a1 * r(n-1)

Substituting the values, we get:

a6 = 1 * 4(6-1) = 1 * 45 = 1 * 1024 = 1024
