c. Powers given indirectly to the federal government.
Implied powers are powers that are not explicitly stated in the Constitution but are necessary for the federal government to carry out its duties and responsibilities. These powers are derived from the necessary and proper clause of the Constitution, which gives Congress the power to make all laws that are necessary and proper for carrying out its duties. Examples of implied powers include the power to create a national bank and the power to regulate interstate commerce.
