Answer:

1. Enumerated (expressed) Powers- Powers listed in the constitution  for the federal government.

2. Concurrent Powers- Powers shared and done by  BOTH federal and state  governments.

3. Reserved Powers-  Powers not listed in the U.S.  Constitution and therefore given  to the states.

Explanation:

The three types of powers listed in the question and their correct definitions are given as follows-

1. Enumerated or expressed powers are those powers that are given to the federal government only. Such powers granted by Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution are specifically for the federal government. Such powers may include the right to coin money, to maintain post offices, regulating commerce, pass laws to prevent bankruptcy, collect taxes, etc.

2. Concurrent powers are the powers that are jointly shared by the federal and state or provincial governments. Such powers may be exercised if the issue involves the same state or province, and may include powers to the building of roads, creating lower courts, occupy lands for government use, etc.

3. Reserved powers are those powers that are only for the state governments and may not be listed in the Constitution. Such powers include control of public education, protecting public health and safety, punish criminals, establishing local governments, etc.
