The correct response is implied powers.

The necessary and proper clause, found in Article I, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution, allows Congress to make laws that are necessary and proper for carrying out its enumerated powers. This has been interpreted to mean that Congress holds implied powers, which are not explicitly stated in the Constitution but are necessary for the administration of its enumerated powers.
