Answer:

c- enumerated powers are specifically listed, while implied powers are only hinted at.

Explanation:

Enumerated powers are those powers expressly granted to the federal government by the constitution. These powers are listed and are very specific. Some of them include; the powers to regulate commerce, declare war, levy and obtain taxes, etc. There are 17 of these expressly stated powers granted by the constitution to congress.

The 18th power grants the federal government the right to make laws that are "necessary and proper". This is the Elastic Clause that makes for the implied powers of the federal government. The implied powers are not expressly stated but are within the discretion of the federal government.
