The correct answer is:<br /><br />**The implied power to create a national bank**<br /><br />### Explanation:<br />The Supreme Court case **McCulloch v. Maryland (1819)** addressed the issue of whether Congress had the constitutional authority to establish a national bank and whether a state (Maryland) could tax that bank. The Court ruled in favor of Congress, stating that the creation of a national bank was an **implied power** under the **Necessary and Proper Clause** of the Constitution. This clause allows Congress to take actions not explicitly listed in the Constitution if they are necessary to carry out its enumerated powers.
