The nurse may say something along the lines of "The order will be submitted to your physician. Your parents will not know." It is only a simple test to see whether the boy has contracted the Human Immuno-Deficiency virus, and thus is not anything that requires interference on the parents' part, which may bring embarrassment on the adolescent. The nurse is practicing general ethics and her moral code here.

Other elements play important roles in biological molecules, but carbon certainly qualifies as the “foundation” element for molecules in living things. It is the bonding properties of carbon atoms that are responsible for its important role.
