Pathophysiology of Myocardial Infarction

It is a 4 slide part of a Powerpoint group assignment, about 65-75 words per slide. It is a total of about Unformatted 300 words ( the text will be reformated and compiled with the rest of the group pages and compile as a 15-page presentation. So I am asking for plain text writing with references in APA 7th edition.

Here are professor instructions:
CONTENTS TO INCLUDE:
INTRODUCTION: EPIDEMIOLOGY – WHO GETS THE CONDITION? RACES, GENDERS/ AGE RANGES
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY IN DETAIL (this part is the one this PP presentation is about)
RISK FACTORS
SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS
DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION
MANAGEMENT
REFERENCES SHOULD BE WRITTEN IN APA FORMAT, 7th edition of the APA Manual or the Purdue OWL Website –. 2 references within 5 years of publication.
Course text may be used and one other reference – SUCH AS EVIDENCE BASED-GUIDELINES, SCHOLARLY JOURNALS, ADVANCED PRACTICE JOURNALS. DO NOT USE WIKIPEDIA OR BASIC NURSING JOURNALS.
Here is some additional information regarding the assignment:
PLEASE ALSO NOTE: ‘Copy & paste’ responses for written work submitted in any course is a form of PLAGIARISM that will result in a failing grade for that assignment! You cannot submit any required written work using this method. You must restate the content in your own words. Restating information in your own words gives an indication of your comprehension and provides you with the opportunity to truly present your views on a topic. Long quotations weaken written work, and quotations of any length (long or short) should only be used if something is said so uniquely or beautifully that you cannot put the information in your own words. Please use direct quotations VERY sparingly.
Please also remember that anytime you copy six or more words in succession from a source you must place the words in quotations and cite the passage using APA format. Also, if concepts from other sources and statistics are presented, even in your own words, you must cite the passage – again using APA guidelines.

Administrative Justice Discussion

No need for sourcing

DISCUSSION
Ron has been selling cocaine out of his apartment for several years. He is a notorious and ruthless drug dealer whom the local authorities have been watching for several years. Marisol is Ron’s live-in girlfriend. Although she does not directly sell drugs, at times she packages the drugs when Ron is selling large quantities, takes messages for Ron, and instructs buyers when to come by. Ron’s operation ends when police execute a search warrant and discover large quantities of cocaine. They charge Marisol as an accessory after Ron informs them that she has been helping him by packaging the drugs and assisting buyers. Answer the following questions:

QUESTION
Can Marisol be convicted as an accomplice? At a minimum, your answer must address mens rea, the natural and probable consequence doctrine, and whether Marisol could be said to have abandoned the crime. [1 to 2 paragraphs]
Can Marisol be convicted as a co-conspirator? Your answer must address the dynamic of mens rea and actus reus. [1 to 2 paragraphs]
For either, would it matter if Marisol had never been in the house when the actual drug sales took place? Would it matter if Marisol was an alcoholic and intoxicated most of the time? [1 paragraph]

questions;
What is the most celebrated festival/holiday in your country?
2. How do you guys handle racism?
3. What do you think about the standard of education in your country?
4. Is there a unique way to greet elders in your community?
5. What advice would you give someone traveling to your country?
6. Does your country depend on imported goods?
7. What do you know about my country?
8. What are the things that your country is known for globally?
9. Is your country restricted from using any popular website?
10. Do you like what your president or state governor is doing in your country right now?
11. Does your country suffer any natural disasters? If Yes, how often?
12. How many local languages do you have in your country?

15. Are citizens allowed to marry more than one wife in your country?
16. What is that thing that bothers you so much about your country?
17. What’s your thought on your country’s politics? Do you think they are doing well?
Answers:
There are so many celebrated holidays in my country, but if I had to chose I would Christmas and Independence Day are among the most celebrated in my country.
2. We handle racism just about how everyone else handles it. I don’t think racism ever really looks any different anywhere in the world. I guess in my country it’s different because we are of the same skin.
3. I have the privilege of living in both societies my country and this country, so that gives me a specific viewpoint on the matter. I would say education is way much more appreciated than here, but the standard of education is much better here than it is there. But of course that’s not to say that there’s not good education there. It just means those who can afford it will achieve it.
4. Not necessarily a unique way, but respect is a must when greeting an elder. My culture does not care if you know the person or not but when you greet an elderly, the same respect that you show to your own parents is expected to be given to them as well.
5. The one advice I would give to anyone visiting my country would be to make sure they take it all in. Also to make sure they enjoy the drums, because Burundian drums are awesome.
6. My country is a very agricultural country, and I think every country depends on imported goods at some level. So I wouldn’t say that my country solely depends on it.
7. I know that your country is very rich in resources.
8. I would like to believe that we are known for our unique culture, but unfortunately I would say that my country is know for the everyday American stereotype of African countries being poor.
9. Not that I am aware of, no.
10. I don’t know much of the president is doing in my country because I don’t live there.
11. I’m not sure, I am not the best person to answer that question. If I had to say, I would say no, my country doesn’t suffer from any natural disasters. But there is the occasional rain that cause floods once in a while.
12. Kirundi is the main language in Burundi. Other languages spoken are Swahili and Kinyrwanda.
13. I watch and listen to foreign music and movies all the time.
14. I’m my country, marriage is a huge celebration. We party hard when it comes weddings
15. No, it’s legally wrong to marry more than one woman , but from a religious standpoint they do.
16. The number one thing that bothers me so much about my country discrimination towards each other.
17. I don’t like politics in general, because of how much it is full of lies. When it comes to my country politics we can always improve definitely and do more.
