Solution

The false statement regarding the power of attorney is: "It is a general form of implied or apparent authority."

A power of attorney is a legal document that gives someone (the agent) the authority to act for another person (the principal) in specific or all legal or financial matters. This is a specific form of express authority, not a general form of implied or apparent authority. The agent's authority is clearly defined and explicitly stated in the power of attorney document.
