powers are used throughout the levels of government. Review and match the types of powers to their definition. (number to letter match) a - #) Powers specifically given to the national government such as establishing post offices
b - #) powers that are suggested and allowed due to the necessary and proper/elastic clause such as establishing the interstate highway system
c - #) powers that don't have to be given in the Constitution - they are just a part of government, such as protecting the country from attack
d - #) powers that both national and state governments have/do such as collecting taxes
e - #)powers neither the federal or state government have (such as making a law that would prevent the establishment of religion)
A: The first one is inherent powers. The Post Office is mentioned in Article 1 Section 8 and is the 7th clause down right in the constitution. It is a right given to the Federal Government to set up Post Offices.
B: The second one also comes from Article 1 Section 8. It is called the Elastic Clause and it allows the Federal Government to to add laws so it can carry out its duties. It is the last clause of Article 1 section 8. Things like highways and borders come under this clause. The answer is 4. Implied Powers.
C: Actually C is granted by the Constitution. Defense must be given to some governing body. This too is Article 1 Section 8. It is in the very first clause. Since it is in the constitution, the right is inherent. Two answers that are the same makes me very nervous, but when something is in the constitution there is no choice but to pick it as an inherent right.
D: Both state and federal governments can tax. These are concurrent powers.
E: The constitution prohibits any law that would show bias or support to an established religion. It is a denied power. This is straight out of Amendment 1.
Alexander Graham Bell's greatest accomplishments were the invention of the telephone (1876) and the refinement of the phonograph (1886). Bell revolutionized communication as we know it and paved the way for more inventors to improve communication as we know it now.
The Europeans in the 16th century used the term <u>"New World"</u> to describe the land "discovered" between Europe and Asia. Amerigo Vespucci coined the term "New World" or "Mundus Novus" in latin, Vespucci had the hypothesis that the lands discovered by Christopher Columbus to the west were not the edges of Asia, but a completely different continent, which he called "New World".
