Yes, the answer is C. The constitution limits the powers of the government by specifically listing the powers it does and does not have. In the United States, the Constitution outlines the powers of the federal government and reserves all other powers to the states and the people. The powers of the federal government are enumerated in Article I, Section 8, while the Tenth Amendment states that any powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved for the states or the people. By clearly defining the powers of the government, the Constitution ensures that it operates within defined boundaries and prevents it from overstepping its authority.
