ANSWER

A parabola.

EXPLANATION

The given conic is :

[tex]16y = {x}^{2} [/tex]

This can be rewritten as:

[tex] {x}^{2} = 16y[/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} = 4(4)y[/tex]

This is a parabola with the vertex at the origin.

The foci is (0,4)

Therefore the given conic section is a parabola that has an axis of symmetry parallel to the y-axis.
