More formally known as the Implied Powers. The Constitution lays out many specific roles of the government, but it would be impossible for the Constitution to lay out every specific role the government would hold in every imaginable situation. Thus, the government has implied powers that give them the power to make laws "necessary and proper" to accomplish what they need to. This gives them a degree of flexibility (or maybe a better Word would be elasticity...).
