The correct answer is **d. Reserved powers**.
Reserved powers refer to those powers that are not specifically granted to the federal government by the Constitution and are therefore reserved for the states or the people. This concept is articulated in the Tenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
To clarify the other terms:
- **Implied powers:** Powers not explicitly stated in the Constitution but are necessary for the government to carry out its enumerated functions.
- **Enumerated powers:** Powers specifically listed in the Constitution, primarily found in Article I, Section 8.
- **Concurrent powers:** Powers that are shared by both the federal and state governments.
