Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Explanation:

I had this same question on my test please tell me if this is the right answer

The right "to create all laws necessary and proper for carrying into action the aforesaid authorities" is granted to Congress in the final paragraph of Article I, Section 8. The elastic clause is so named because it allows Congress to increase its authority, especially when national laws are enacted.

So, option B is the correct effect of Article 1.

The other Options are incorrect as:

Option A is incorrect as no it does not check the authority of the other branches of government it implies power.

Option C is incorrect as it does not establish Congress's enumerated power.

Option D is incorrect as it does grant Congress the franking privilege it gives congress implied powers.

Thus option B is the correct effect of clause 18.
