Answer:

B. It reserves specific powers for the federal government.

Step-by-step explanation:

The powers that are granted to the federal government from the U.S. Constitution are called delegated powers. Along with this, the tenth amendment grants that all powers not in the Constitution are given to the states and/or people. This stops the government from abusing its power and lowers conflict between the two.
