Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
A literature review is a written summary of the state of evidence on a research problem. The primary purpose of literature reviews is to integrate research evidence to sum up what is known and what is not known. Literature reviews are sometimes stand-alone documents intended to share the state of evidence with interested readers, but reviews are also used to lay the foundation for new studies.
