Students are required to use 5 to 7 relevant research articles to your topic of study in your written review. Generally, these research articles need to have been published within the last 5 years. — (I have already selected articles that I will upload.)

The purpose of a Literature Review is to summarize what you have learned from an immersion in the research literature related to your problem statement. The written literature review is an organized narrative that conveys to the readers of your action research project the relevance of published research to your problem statement. In addition, through the process of locating and reading the research articles related to your problem statement and paying attention to other researchers’ research questions and methods of data collection and analysis, you will get new ideas for your own research questions and kinds of data you will want to collect and analyze for your own study.

A narrative is a story. As you interviewed your colleague last week, several of the experiences your colleague shared may have struck you as being especially pertinent to his or her life story. For this assignment, you transform your interview notes into a narrative—that is, a life story­—of the colleague you interviewed. You interweave within this narrative an analysis of the life story by applying person and the environment concepts to your understanding and interpretation of that story. For example, you may identify a life-span development theory that, when applied to your colleague’s narrative, helps you to understand his or her development and behavior at that point in the life span.

associated to fraud and inventory.

Following the academic literature, you will be expected for your chosen organisation to identify an aspect of the supply

chain that is at risk of fraud or obsolescence. Using the literature review and course core text design a solution to

mitigate the identified risks using either/or combination of people, process or technology and you will need to underpin

For each assignment, you will use the M.U.S.E. link to complete the lab.

In this lab, you will determine how an invasive species—the zebra and quagga mussel—affects other species in the freshwater

lake. Use the animation to help you come up with an answer to the following:

Why do you see increases and decreases in the invasive species population?
What are the implications associated with these alterations to the ecosystem as a whole?

The Effects of Zebra and Quagga Mussels Introduced into a Freshwater Lake

As you have learned, population dynamics are caused by the biotic potential of the population and the effects of

environmental resistance. When there is minimal environmental resistance impacting a population, it will exhibit a

population explosion. One reason for minimal resistance could be factors that no longer regulate a population (e.g.,

predator decline or resource increases). Another reason for a population explosion is the introduction of an invasive

species. Invasive species are species foreign to an ecosystem and are not immediately regulated by the environmental

restraints of the particular ecosystem that they invade. This in turn allows their populations to grow seemingly

uncontrolled and to displace other indigenous populations. Examples of such an invasive species into North America are

dreissenid mussels, commonly known as zebra and quagga mussels. Their introduction into the Great Lakes has caused economic

hardship and a reorganization of the ecosystem. This has led, in part, to pollution-causing effects that can be linked to

an alga known as Cladophora.

Ecosystems are webs of intricately balanced interactions, what happens when a new species is introduced that uses a

disproportionate share of the ecosystem’s resources?

Using the M.U.S.E. link, review the background information and animation to complete your report.
