Since you provided a time, I am taking a guess that it's online and the teacher or professor should usually give you a time that officially marks when it's due on January 3rd. If not, you could turn it in on January 3rd anytime, but not after 12:00 a.m. which would make it January 4th. I hope this makes since.
I think the answer is A, or D, have a nice day!!!
Ummm i dont understand.. maybe rocket?
