Answer:

g(x) is f(x) expanded horizontally by a factor of 2

Explanation:

Given:

f(x) = 16^x

g(x) = 16^(x/2)

__

Replacing x in a function with x/k expands the graph horizontally by a factor of k. Here, it seems we have ...

g(x) = f(x/2)

so g(x) is a horizontal expansion of f(x) by a factor of 2.
