Answer $1)$

If we do $2$ to $n$ mapping, n boolean element can make set of $2^{n}$ elements.

Now for mapping of $2$ to $2^{n}$, boolean function would be $2^{2^{n}}$

 $A$ $B$ $f_0$ $f_1$ $f_2$ $f_3$ $f_4$ $f_5$ $f_6$ $f_7$ $f_8$ $f_9$ $f_{10}$ $f_{11}$ $f_{12}$ $f_{13}$ $f_{14}$ $f_{15}$ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 1

As we can see from the above table ,

Using $n$ boolean variables (here $n=2$ $A,B$ are boolean variables),

We can create $2^n$ combinations ($00,01,10,11$)

and using those $2^n$ combinations we can create $2^{2^n}$ functions ($16$ functions = $f_0,f_1,....f_{15}$)

$\therefore$ Option $1.$ is correct.
