Answer:

inherent powers

Step-by-step explanation:

Inherent powers are the type of power that is not necessarily given by any law, but still very important within the government. This type of power is only given to federals government in order to ensure that the law is properly implemented.

One example of an inherent power was the power for the federal government to "take care that the laws be faithfully executed". Since it's the power to implement the law, we can say that this power in essence is higher compared to the content of the law.
